    Today I added a 3M yellow film on the lens covers of the Solis lights. They were too white before; I like them very much now, that they are warmer.

    Also spooled up the winch rope.

    I wanted to hide away the wires for the ham radio. The radio is mounted on a molle panel on the back of the driver's seat. Bought the mic extension and separator wires from Yaesu, and pulled them under the carpet and under the driver's door threshold to the dash. The mic wire ends in a gland plate mounted in the center console.

    The mic is mounted on its metal clip.

    The clock in the dash was broken so I decided to use its location, so I 3D printed a replacement with four holes that could be used to attach other stuff. What you see here is the first prototype but it works well enough, so I used it.

    That's how the center console looks now (also showing the TPMS that I added recently):

    The control for the ham radio is in a Ram mount under the mirror.The wire drops down from the headliner.

    Powdercoated steel wheels. The hue is off but now am stuck with them, so will learn to love them. Next time I replace the tires might change the color but that's probably 2 yrs or so in the future as the tires are almost new.
