    I have a 3' Firestik with a Firestik quick disconnect and medium spring

    Nope, no luck yesterday, but I am hoping I can fix it soon! Thanks for the concern.

    Wow you did put it pretty low but it seems like it would work better in terms of strength.

    Dang I'm fat in that picture. I'm fat PERIOD. :(

    Yeah if it was above those raised parts of the liner then the bolts would have hit the metal lip in the bed, and it seemed like the spot that they are now had the most liner behind it to give it the most support, but they are lower than ideal. We'll see how the hi-lift mounting goes.

    What was wrong with the FJ? I never heard the full story. I know it was something electrical because his entire dash was in pieces under his car...

    Nice! Finally got that M8000 mounted I see :)

    Too much stuff going on for the last 3 weeks or so. I haven't even had time to drill the holes for my rear bumper flip up license frame yet, let alone the stack of parts taking up space in my garage.

    Bummed as this meet sounded pretty awesome and wasn't all that far from my house.

    ^ Alright Ill take some when I get home!
    Hooked everything else up yesterday to the actual fuse block too and it worked!!
    Question for you electrical experts..
    the siren is 100 watts, battery is 12 volts
    W=AxV
    so Amps should only be 8.333333
    So I threw a 10amp fuse in that slot... do you think thats ok? or should I throw a 15 or bigger in? I got the variety pack so I think i hve 5,10...,30.
    think I'm good?
