So far so great! I have all of the lights installed and have been impressed with the results thus far. Might be a different story on the trails but we will have to see. The hardest/most time consuming part of the whole install in the wiring of course but other than that it is a breeze.
Parts list:
10 - pre-wired superflux 4-chip 12V LED from
http://www.oznium.com/prewired-superflux
1 - Rocker Switch from Autozone $3.99
1 - In-Line Mini Fuse
50' of Red 18g wire
50' of Black 18g wire
End-to-End wire splicers
4' section of Pre Drilled/Slotted Angle from Lowe's
Self-Tapping Metal Screws
Superglue
$.97 Flat Black Spray Paint
I cut the 4' pre drilled/slotted angle into to sections that contain 2 full holes (about 2" long) with a chop saw. I round the edges and they were ready to go.
I then decided the mounting points (10 total). Once decided I used the Self-Tapping Metal Screws to secure them to the Frame (2 per Bracket) and painting them Black. The 2 in the front are glued to the Factory Front Bumper that I am still Rocking
!
I let them sit for about 2 hours then I superglued the lights in place for mounting and did electical work.
Electrically, I started with runing the in-line fuse line from the battery to the rocker switch installed under the cigerette lighter and back out. The whole system has to be ran parallel and hidden . I tried to run the majority of the wires thru the chassis to keep it protected from the off-roading.
I left 2 holes in each bracket in case I want to add additional lights later. Like I said before I want more of these so if anyone else decides to order some let me know, I like to replace some of the factoru lighting inside and made add some more elsewhere.
Total investment:
Parts - $60
Labor - 3hrs
