    Finished up the wiring today. Didn’t do as much under the hood as I normally would since this will all get redone in a month (hopefully). I pulled out the gas door and that made it really easy to get to the holes at the rear of the bed. I threw a 3/8 grommet in the top hole and fed the lead wire through that.

    Do these throw enough light to double as backup lights if needed? Contemplating installing mine here too but want the added benefit of dual purpose.

    I don’t think they’d be useful there for backup lights, but I’ll let you know next time I’m out at night and have a chance to throw them on without blinding anyone

    i can attest to my Baja Design s1s, they are massively cut off by the bed. I’ve prewired my rear bumper location for aux backup lighting (baja s2 pros) just for this very reason.

    Scored a ProClip mount from @TundraPHX today and realized I should have gotten one of these a while ago. It’s a great spot and solid as hell. I added an iBolt 17mm ball plate and I can swap between my MagSafe mount when I roll the phone naked or the drop slot mount I use while off road.

    Also added some metal plates for the magnetic mounts I put on my BaoFeng. I’ll still upgrade to the MobArmor mount at some point, but this works pretty well.

    Thanks! And yes, my garage setup will be getting an upgrade. I’ll post updates here as that comes through.

    But now I’ll be watching https://hotshotoffroad.com tomorrow to see if I’m sneaking some cash out while the wife isn’t looking. I’m sure the underwriter won’t notice…
