    Waiting on a cubby panel has been what’s been stopping me from getting all the things wired up; got it in today finally, so now I should have things done fairly quickly.

    yeah that would be cool. Maybe VA beach or something. I’ve never been there. Unless you frequent the OBX or Myrtle Beach.

    I love OBX. We go to surf fish. Hatteras is probably my favorite since it's not as "touristy" as the rest.

    I’ve never been but we are considering buying a camper or taking some cash out of the equity in the house for a downpayment on a beach property, not sure where though.

    Also I suck at fishing. I’ve never caught one in the dozen times I’ve been. :anonymous:

    We've had horrible timing every time. The last two trips were right after a hurricane came through. I'm guessing it pushed all the fish out to deeper water.

    Lol I eat about 3% of the fish that I catch. I do it more for sport and the chance to catch a hog.

    Two batteries are better than one (plus RedArc BCDC). Did all the wiring myself. Tried to make it clean as I could, I don’t do sloppy wiring.

    VA Beach for photo shoots might not be the best...very very restictive...I mean they enforce your language by fining for cursing (or at least it used to be that way as I haven't been down there in years).

    Either way I'd be down to join (and ooggle and drool over the lights amongst other mods y'all have!)

    “soon”

    It was actually on the to-do list today, but the BCDC harness took me forever to make look good.

    I need to source someone with a DT crimper locally so I can get the LP9’s done. I’m not spending $60 on a crimper to use half a dozen times.

    Auto zone will do it for you. They did the cables for my winch control box relocate. They have all the crimpers in the back.

    I have crimpers, terminals, and tons of wire in all sizes. It just took a while to make it all look pretty.
