PICTuREs!
This was just a little snowy 1/4 mile road in Breckinridge, CO. Thanks [MENTION=57546]4-Ripcord[/MENTION] for sharing the photo spot! Also pulled out a first gen.

Alex,

Can you post a close up picture of your roof rack mounts? What did you use? It looks like some sort of cold rolled channel.

I like the IG sticker. I had the same idea a while back but just forgot all about it. Did you order it online or get it made local?

I just did some googling and found a font and style I like! Totally forget where I found it though.

So it's just the Unistrut you find in the electrical section of Home Depot. I'm going to go to a thicker gauge before I put the tent back on because these have been breaking and I keep replacing them with the leftover I had when I built it. Super simple just 4 holes, 2 on each side and the rest is self explanatory! I hope this helps.

SRQ Retrofits

Installed the SRQ Retrofits today with [MENTION=107971]derpiful[/MENTION]. Install was a little weird.
Here are photos tearing the old ones out!

This was easy, disconnect/cut and it came out easy.

Now these to go in!

This is where it got weird. Plugged everything in and wired everything properly. Flicked the lights on and all we got was a quick flash then nothing..??? Now we start trouble shooting. We started with the grounds and they seemed good. Then onto switching bulbs, ignitors, and computers. We started making progress... sorta. Then we switched the power wire placement on the battery. Boom! we got ONE light to stay on. Repeated switching Ignitors and computers around to see where are other problem is. Turns out I recieved a old style ignitor not compatible with the computer I recieved. Talked to SRQ and they are over nighting the proper ignitor and all should be well. Here are pictures with just Halos, will update with light output and cutoff etc. shortly!

Love this build, one of my favorites on the site and the pictures are top notch. What camera are you using?

Thank you! Means a lot! I'm shooting on a T3i with a 50mm and recently a 24-105mm L series lens

Those lights look so much better than the ones I made do :lmao:

They look pretty damn good! The color matched shroud sets it off, glad SRQ convinced me to do it instead of black. [emoji7]

Random question here: do you lock your hilift to your carrier? If so, how? I'm installing the swingout on my bumper next weekend and need ideas for jack-security

I run a cable lock through the spare tire, hilift and my trasharoo when it's on!
