IF you were to hook all those up and turn them on at night ALIENS would think looking down on earth and see all that light you were attacking them and they would vaporize you on the spot / or some other countries satalites think you were a missile launch and (again) vaporize you so for you and your family get rid of some of those lights while you still can ! I dont want to be reading about you in the CHAPLINS CORNER and everybody all sad and such and im sure those ALIEN death rays will melt the plastic housings on those lights and no one get any use out of them when your all gone !!!!!!!

Chucky quit begging ain't gonna give you any of my Truck-lites!

Okay finally getting around to finishing the wiring up and the zip-tie holders stink they only hold half a pound! Went and bought some 3M super strength two sided tape and it seams to work well, pictures to come.

. 50 lbs 1/2 a pound!be smart in this hot weather and sit in the A/C and make up a few dozen cable ties, I wasn't and sweated down a few times on the first side.

Okay so the 3m stuff is not holding great. Just bought a couple of boxes of rubber covered stainless wire clamps off Amazon.

We use these cable holders, but only in an enclosure. Never outside. We tried for several years, and never found any adhesive that really worked well. We use a number of clip systems, but at the end of the day, they tend to comoe off easy. On a truck like yours, we would weld conduit holders on the truck. Lots more work, but is dependable and durable.

Yeah the P clamps are what should have come with this kit but I guess they didn't want some Pvt Pile drilling extra holes in the armor just for wire clamps! But the thing is there are bolts all over the MRAPS, just add the p-clamps to fit, DUH! I am going to need too drill many small holes but do it right and you only have to do it once, I knew this when I looked at it but ignored that little voice in my head that said it wouldn't work. What really pisses me off is for what we paid for this and our guys were depending on this they should have been ashamed to have let it out the door.

I think that looks awesome! For a wrecker, having plenty of lighting is a must! I went cheap with Amazon lights, but I found that the BigLion brand to be pretty good and those are decently priced. I was pissed when they discontinued their flood work lights, those were only $40 for the pair and very bright with a wide flood.
