TAG Towbar

I got it home and fitted

9in Hella Spotlights (with HID bulbs)

Second Battery (AC Delco 830cca - one I had spare, seeing if it fits)

If someone can tell me what bull bar that is that would be great!

Installed my UHF this weekend... and made a little bracket to hang my handset (slips in behind the aircon controls so I did not have to molest the dash

UHF installed

Handset Bracket (I painted it black after that photo was taken)

Arial installed

[Guest]

second battery kit is wired in now...

ABR Sidewinder 140A dual battery controller (hidden down beside the starting battery)

Second battery installed, wires connected (still needs a bit of cleaning up, I wont bother until I finish connecting accessories to it.

I used a generic supercheap battery tray, slightly modified to re-locate the aircon line.

my HID kits arrived in the post today, will put them in this afternoon.

I have already converted all of the other lights to LED.

[Steven]

Very keen to see how that UHF goes!

[Guest]

HIDs are now installed... here is a compassion of color difference.

I just have to replace those horrible bull bar lights and the LED/HID conversion is complete.... all of the other lights are LED

[Guest]

Got the new tyres fitted... looks good IMO.

Tyres are 265/70/R17 BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO on 17x8 +15 dynamic steel wheels.

So much WIN!

Bloody drooling here son!

Smart going for A/Ts, whilst muddies have their place I reckon they would drive you mad until you actually made it off road

[Guest]

got my custom switches today... and a 12v socket

I had to make some modification to the panel to get them to fit (file out the top of the holes, remove lip inside) But they fit OK.

they don't actually cover too much of the factory switches below... they are still easily usable.

They have a green LED for back lighting and a red LED to indicate if they are on or not.

I wired in my spotlights (after having them on the car as decoration since I purchased it) The relay situation is pretty sketchy though. (old relay I found in the shed held in with a zip tie, haha)

However, the spotlights are working and match the color temperature of the headlights (kind of a crappy pic but you get the idea)

I plan to buy some of these (relay with inbuilt fuse)

and some of these bases (click together with screw hole)

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/auto-relay-socket/566543531.html

to have a little relay/fuse board for all of my switched circuits.

I also got my LED bull bar lights today, I will install these this afternoon.

Super Cheap sell those relays.

Love it Mick! Good choice on the rubber too!
