Those look awesome! Are they the white, backlit amber variety? And will you post some pics at night when you get a chance please? I'm leaning heavily toward pulling the trigger on them, but haven't seen many good photos of how much light they put out.



Take my money!!
Really though, those look great. Excited to see what your final option is.
I'll let you know in the next day or so.

So after much reading this weekend the material I'm using for the sill plates is about the thickest stuff there is. I am going to visit a sign shop tomorrow and see if they have any ideas for a thicker material that I can either laser cut or use my plotter. I think what I'm using will work, but I want to be sure.

How thick is that material? I think the other ones I saw were 6mil but not sure what’s normal for those.

These are 2 mil, I'm sure you have seen thicker, but those are unable to be cut by a plotter. I could probably laser cut that thick but the design would fall out.

Alvin next time you think about it, take a shot from behind the steering wheel with nothing but the whites on please.

Josh,
Here you go. Now my neighbor hates me, but I’m ok with that. :)

The ambers will remain on while driving so long as SW6 is on. When the vehicle is off, the lights turn off too.

Todays project.
Installed my M&R bumper lights.
Not too difficult. Only drew blood once.

They look great!

Personally, I always gauge my projects on the number of expletives I hurl. My wife usually goes and stays with her parents for a couple of days when I announce a new project… 😂

Just kidding. The wife and I visited Henry Ford’s winter residence and museum in Fort Myers, Florida this weekend. Lots of neat stuff there if you ever get the chance to visit. He and Thomas Edison were good friends, and kind of shared a gorgeous lot on the Caloosahatchee River. There are some pretty amazing botanical specimens on the grounds too. Well worth a visit.

Still not use to the window buttons being in the middle. The passenger side seat not sliding forward with just the leaver on the back of the seat. Have to change the mode back every time on the dial you restart the Bronco.
