It's also great for tail-gators - flick those puppies on and watch them back off!!


And we get a lot of early morning fog here - so a good safety feature.

Just saw you were doing this. Everything Overboost says is right.

Roger that!

I'm waiting for my switch, connectors and bulb holders to arrive.

Already have the LED bulbs.

Just have to figure out how to pull the LCM panel without damage.

Got my connector bits from Pelican the other day so I started the tailgate work for the rear fogs.

I had a pair of 26 watt 1156 bulbs (yeah I know spec is 21 watts) but after a few minutes of testing the outer lenses were getting warm so I resorted to my trusty LED specimens and similar brightness but sooooo much cooler and so much lower amp draw.

Here's my path for the tailgate wiring with my trusty coat hangar fishing tool





Awaiting my Euro switch from Latvia and then the cross cabin wiring to the LCM.

Done!



Thanks for the guidance folks!
