    That's a nice shade of purple if you are into the color purple.

    I wanted to learn wiring. All these questions just discouraged me.

    Don't be skeered. It's only 12v. Everything has a relay and/or fuse. You got to really fuck something up to cause issues.

    I went to go look at a 1st gen 4runner last weekend. It was cheap. 50k on the rebuilt engine. Body was rough but whatever. It was going to be a beater anyways. The interior had so many added electronics. He opens the engine bay and its almost literally a nest of wires by the battery.

    Noped out of that one.

    Dude these are the best. I feel like these are must haves for people that rely on electronics, or like to have a lot of them.

    Shop Tip Of The Day:
    -When using a 4" grinder, be sure you have a firm grip on it at all times.
    - If you do allow it to get away from you, don't drop it on its cord.
