thats just crazy! but so awesome i wanna do this in the future...

I was talking to a buddy of mine and he's into mustangs' he also has a pretty sick set up on his but has a bunch of crap hooked to his battery too and he mentioned something about wire tucking. have you heard of that? I haven't researched it all yet so i think its more than just tucking your wires. duno???

 

[thorridder]

hmm no i havnt, i have quite a few friends with mustangs but havnt really looked that close. might just be re-routing them to look better maybe. prolly like me putting all my wires in the conduit under the hood to try to control them, buy hiding them

 

[thorridder]

yes they were very much a pain bc it doesnt fit in the shop anymore... all outside and it got dark early now and not having the right things
did 4 front all on one switch that is a @ 12v 50A power heavy duty switch, did all 6 side and back on one switch, ran all the wires through conduit and zip tied it to the rack, my fingers were killing me when i got done should have got bigger conduit, then just ran the wire through all the inside panels to the battery

Where did you enter the truck? I came in through the back gate, but I've heard of some guys coming in through the back door, and one guy told me you can get in from holes in the rack rails....any pics of that?

you can kinda see it but not much in one, had to run two lines and both enter on the driver side top of the hatch and into the inside panel where i hid them

looks sick man! gosh ive been planning to actually ditch my brush guard until i saw your pics, your runner makes me maybe want to keep it longer LOL!

EDIT: Since your going all black too i was wondering if you ever thought that changing the materiel on the doors to a black would look good? I saw this fabric paint that dupicolor makes, and was thinking about giving it a try?? sorry i saw your doors and you have the same setup im thinking it would pretty sick with the all black look??
