    I'll make a new thread when I have pictures to show off. I'm going to duplicate as many features as I can for the diy community, handle attachments , light bar cutouts, "scene pods", hidden wiring channels, etc.


    Working name for the project is "I can't believe it's not UpTop"

    Love it. We started here on TW. A few thousand questions and triple that in hours it’s a real company now that provides jobs and really gives us a chance to focus on being innovative.

    Some of our dimensions and stuff like that are top secret squirrel and proprietary but if you need something from me, never hurts to ask.

    As for this thread.....the fairing is cool. No idea what their history is as I never pay attention to other companies for a whole host of reasons. But at least there is another option on the market for you guys. Love it or hate it? I’m sure it’s solid.

    I installed mine this weekend. It has some Prinsu features but clearly has it's own well thought out features. I love having my light bar covered; it is protected from road crap and is much quieter. It is a quality built American made product.
    As for the haters; not one of them has had an original thought of their own! They are quick to point out the similarities but not the stark differences that make it a unique product. After the first guy (or gal) threw a bar across their roof and strapped crap to it: everything else is just a copy!

    I'm still very happy with mine; my only complaint is with the quality of the hardware. I would have paid a bit more for hardware that doesn't leave little rust streaks. A quick wipe down with with WD40 or something similar corrects this though.

    2nd that, super happy with the rack overall. The only gripes I had were from day 1 and day~3. It's super foggy where I live so the washers rusted out almost immediately. It's on my get bored list to go get SS everything and rattlecan it black. The 2nd thing is having to plan out the accessories before putting it all together is kind of a pain. This could be remedied with the roll in Tnutz but they are spendy for some nuts and I already had a 25 pack of the slide in type, and the economy type. Now I just leave a bunch of extra in each slot and throw a bolt/nut on them so they don't move around when they aren't holding something down.

    I added the side lights a few months ago and they are actually very handy for camping/offroad. I just got mega stuck in the snow a few days ago and I had plenty of light while digging myself out . . . :censored:

    Got mine on a week or two ago. Having a hard time figuring out wiring and everything being as that i want to wire each side separately to an Auxbeam switch panel. Was wondering how both of y’all wired yours or if you have any tips. Thanks.

    I ordered a 3 wire flat extension cord which is perfect. I have white, ambers, and left and right wired separately with deutsch connectors than separate buttons on my Switch-Pros. I spliced all the connectors into the extension cord than used heat shrink to protect.

    I just switched from my home made setup to an auxbeam 8. I just got some primary wire from the hardware store in black, I think 16 awg. I ran 2 up each side in the windshield rubber gap and under the corner of the fairing. Got some duech connectors on Amazon and finished them off with heat shrink butt splices. I put look on everything on the roof that has splices or is exposed.
