    Update!
    Mocked up the stinger bar/ made some modifications to make it a lil' easier to remove.
    Welded on some massive spikes
    Wired the lights
    Mounted the roof rack bars with the center set of feet installed
    rear facing light bar mounted and glowin'
    Then pulled it all off to texture the bar and metal lamp housings with a hammer tone.

    Its pretty bright now.

    The wench hangs too low. :nightmare: (it's EF'n up my approach) looks like its comin' back off and getting chopped, flipped, and welded back up. ;)

    Here is a shot of just the HID/headlights.

    Stinger bar lights and headlights.

    Explain the spikes for me... I think they'll just get bent when we are running over little saplings as we Baja through the Pasco wilderness..

    Lots of trick stuff taking place..

    Roof basket textured and installed
    Actuator installed and wired to factory EF sunroof swtich
    Baja Style lights installed in roof basket mounted light bar
    Wired stinger bar lights with factory 3rd Gen. Defroster switch
    Wired rear light bar with factory EF defroster switch
    Wires routed through roof rack bars and roof
    Wired in 2 relays that would run in series to control the power folding light bar
    Wired in relays for the lights on the stinger bar and power light bar

    Looked like a nest there for a few minutes.... :disturbed:

    At first glance at night I thought this may be mistaken for the Ghostbuster mobile. Ha!

    All is looking great! Don't think you will have any problems seeing the trails off road :cool-new:
  • Nice video. I am super impressed with the lights AND the spikes of course. I doubt we could get away with the spikes here in Washington state.

    not liking that idea red side to side idea for the front of my 88 Rt4wd ciViכ wagon... but i have something like that in mind for the rear replacement inside hatch brake light from .... www.AutoLumination.com

    if you want to see it doing its wild tricky light show ... here is a youtube video..

    but as for the front lights set up this out for parking lights....

    and then look here middle of hood .... the 2 holes left from the missing H, the guys @ CTI installed some tag leds i think i had laying around in the trunk of Scrappy ...
    631.jpg

    but wait til i get another pair of the small 194 bulbs that switch from super white parking and then flash amber for turn signals .... might do 2 pair in each corner light .... just to match the bumper set up ..:encouragement:
