2011 RW intro and build

Did the “car trim” switches that have been advertised before on the forums. Quick shipping, easy install, work great.
Went with “white” because I did the “victron?” Speedo mod. Not bright, just right.

 

You just replace the switches and have all auto windows?

 

Yeah- there is a thread floating around here- might be 2.5 gen thread about switching them out
You can find them on “cartrim” auto parts.
Super easy to do.

 

Thanks for this. Now I have another mod added to my need to do list.

 

But wait there’s more!

Time for some ski lot camping!
Heat on tap here I come
Hcalory briefcase heater with bluetooth- lots o mods on improving unit on youtube.
Tire side step for keeping unit off ground /snow
window cap inlet and exhaust homemade- if it’s really cold it can recycle cap air vs outside freezing air.
Runs on 12v from Ecoflow battery pack.

 

Steering wheel wrap from Amazon “lokey” or something like that-60 bucks? So nice. Took about 2.5 hrs . Love it. Lighting looks weird - it’s a flat black.

 

looking good

 

Been busy
Ironman UCA

Few more
I think I’m done. Ready for summer! Want to do Denver Cabo soon if the border cools down a little. Please PM if you have any current intel on Baja. Did it 1993 in a VW bus I rebuilt out of a junkyard! (Santa Barbara to Baja then to Cancun)

 

Looks like your Baja surf rig has come together. I sent a text to my friend who lives in Pescadero about border issues. As far as I know he uses the San Diego border and drives back and forth at least once a year.

 

Got rid of the rock warrior wheels?

 

Yes- wheels sold quick.
So I went up just a tad in tire size and went 17 to 18” wheels in anticipation of maybe needing a bigger brake in the future. WAGing that I added10+\- in wheel weight…. Dang, that really killed my mpg, like almost 2mpg! But that said I added a 1/2 in height, who knows…(before super pacific)
