    Mounted and wired some lights up under the tent on both sides. Only took pictures of one side I guess. Just some cheap Amazon lights but they seem to work well anyway

    With a HUGE help from @LivinLoud, I got my work lights completely wired. One switch turns on the 4 pods around the base of the rtt, 4 rock lights mounted inside the bed, the flush mount lights in my back bumper, and all of my reverse lights. Used a 1 way diode so all these extra lights don’t come on when in reverse. Everything is completely wired with marine grade wiring, with heat shrink connectors and loom, tape, or heat shrink tubing over all connections. More pics coming soon. In the mean time, check out my power and ground distribution in a nice junction box for all of these lights.

    The newest project is quickly coming along. I’ve been putting together my own on board water set up. Y’all better be ready for this shit :thumbsup:

    Pictures coming as soon as I get it all in the truck. Give me a couple days.

    Basically I’m just being prepared for the worst case scenario... which obviously would be a unexpected squirt gun fight.... and you all would get your butt’s whooped with the 3 gallons per minute of a super soaker I’ve got mounted :D

    Wired the inside of my tool box tonight. Even put a couple of led lights inside it because that’s what I do lol now just to wire it to the truck

    Also the work lights I just put on, I just added an awesome remote control switch for them. So I can climb up into my tent and shut them off remotely. Just 4 quick taps and it’s good to go. I can’t believe this switch was only $11. Well worth it.

    You're going to need a regular/2nd vehicle to drive soon. Too many toys on it to park "at the mall" or similar places.
