Alright, time to all but finish this up:

Dash torn out...I did this while waiting for my class to start one night:


Here's the simple switch I used and it's placement in the cubby hole on the left side of the main center stack. It's off centered for a reason so that I can easily get to it with my hand:




Switch wiring:


Time to black out this light bar so that it looks like it belongs on my truck:

This is available at Home Depot for $20. It's not permanent, so if I want to remove it or change it out later, it's very easy. I heard about this from someone who used it on a lexan rear truck window for a truck that had a cage running through the back window:




I ended up cutting this down to the exact size of the lexan:


All those little screws that hold the outer trim down (which holds the lexan down) were removed and painted with black, high heat enamel:



Blacked out light bar completed and re-assembled:

Now fabbing up the mounts. I used some very thick metal brackets from Home Depot and then bent and cut them to work for me. They were also painted with the black enamel, but I forgot to take a pick of them after paint:



Done with installation. I love how it's almost invisible even without the trim piece on:



Lit up:






I might be able to finish up the trim piece this weekend.

Damn David! That looks bad ass! I like how you even painted the screws.

Thanks Morgan. My biggest thanks goes to you. You made wiring this up correctly with a relay and in-line fuse sound like no big deal. Thank you very much.
