    If your running them in the stock fog location, I’d just use the factory connector. A 9006 male connector is easy to get a hold of to be plug and play.


    If you want to control the fogs any time you want, the any time fog light mod can allow that too

    @empty_lord that’s probably the route I’m gonna go. That sounds better than the trouble of running a separate harness. Non of the write ups I’ve looked at said what they did for their switch

    appreciate it :thumbsup:

    something like this to wire the BD lights will make the plug and play, without hacking up stock wiring either

    After some finessing on my part.
    I only did one side because it was super uneven. Guess which side is leaking like a rusty bucket? The side I didn’t touch!!!
    I’ll have to pull the passenger side and weld some more material on those block off ports:(

    I took some friendly 5.7s from on here into the hills have eyes territory yesterday. After they went home I had planned on taking a nap before going home myself, but some desert rat friends started filling me up with beer and sleep aid. Then they dragged me to a container house party where they kept filling me up. There were some characters at the party which is typical of desert rats, but they said the same thing about me.

    This morning I woke up with a piece of sidewalk chalk in my pocket and have no clue where it came from. :confused:

    Struggling here with removal of spark plugs
    decided to check ignition coils and plugs today. Coils seem ok, but I can't get my plugs out.
    Using 5/8" spark plug socket and can't seem to get socket seated onto plug. Is a lot of force required to get the top of plug into the rubber of socket? Am I missing something here?

    You’ll want a Magnetized Socket Plug not the rubber old skool socket. Your life will be so much easier with it. Its a magnetized socket with a ball connection to extension. Win win win.

    Try autozoned or the likes. Call first before wasting time driving. They’ll know the tool. Its one piece socket plus extension that is a strong magnet. It does have a little Silcone ring inside for damage control.

    should have gone there anyway. Always looking for excuses to take the boys out for a cruise though, she's just 3 miles away.

    So I called the local topper dealer, my top is older, so he had to call the manufacture..........
    I have the ExtraVision cap, their top of the line model. Extra oversized side windows with sliding screens, full glass rear hatch.
    The guy basically said no one does cab boots anymore, and since I have the full roll down window I would need to cut a lot of the shell to make it all line up.
    Also Snugtop doesn’t sell a vented windoor for my oversized side windows. A new replacement window would be around 450 complete. Guy also said a local glass shop might have a hard time making a functional piece of replacement glass due to it being curved as well. He gave me a glass place to go to, and I’ve actually used them prior for other things, so I’ll see what they say

    Try using some 3/4 or 7/8” Armaflex. You know... the shtuff they use for Pipe Insulation. Shtuff it around your window and between your cab. Read it here from someone that did it. Or, grab some Pool Noodles and filet them in half for Full Billy Bob Style Points!

    I sorta thought about this, if anything I can do this once I’m where I need to be, maybe just one 6ft piece across the top would be good

    Yeah. I’d go full coverage here near the Swamps and Bayou only when Camping. Remove for travel. Might find a piece on the side of road!

    Actually using both works great.

    Magnetic to easily remove them and the rubber one to screw them in by hand and catch the threads without ruining them.

    Just make sure you only grab the spark plug with the socket 1/2 on so if you over torque it by hand, the plug slips in the rubber section and never damages the block threads for the plug.

    Not sure your Magnetic Type, but the one I have is all I need. High Quality Silicone inside. Reverse Screw Technique on the Thread until the drop seat and then go righty tighty for the win!:yes:
