So here is the result of my weekend project!
And check out this startup sequence!
Let me start by saying, I'm not affiliated with @SPVPARTS but I'm really glad that I found them.
I was inspired by this video originally. This is the video though where he explains how to wire everything up and what parts you'll need to buy to get it done.
I went down a rabbit hole watching their youtube channel and am so grateful that I learned about weather pack connectors. I've gotten better at splicing wires over the years, and on my '21 I soldered them and used heatshrink tubes, but that was more or less permanent. Do yourself a favor and get these weather pack connectors. You just crimp and heat shrink the numbered wire to the corresponding AUX switch and then you can easily identify and move things around as needed.
For any wires that were still exposed (the AUX wires not in use and any others), I locked these hole plugs into blank single pole sockets and that should create a weather tight seal.
I also used their DRL harness to tie the everything to the headlight socket. No wires were cut or spliced anywhere!
Their support was incredible, even going so far as to double check my cart for me to ensure I'd have everything I'd need.
Big Shout Out to Putco for the lighted B.R.O.N.C.O. letters. My former Bronco had the Oracle letters but I like that with these the letters fully light up, installation with these was also much easier both bolting them in and wiring them up. These also have a dim setting, a bright setting, a startup sequence vs just one setting, and a white setting. The white also looks great and I love that I can switch to that if I ever want to.
Testing that everything works!
Taking the headlights and everything else out made installing the Rigid Radiance fog lights much easier, I didn't have to disassemble the wheel well covers.
AlphaRex Nova-Series headlights with in Alpha Black with the amber bars and white halos (hey, it's a Wildtrak not a Raptor!) These are also customizable.
Tim to drill out the Grille letters, a terrifying process. Main piece of advice here is so go slow and clean up the plastic as you go,o it flies everywhere. It's really easy to get some under the grille and scratch it up was you're working with it.
Snapped everything back in and I was done!
This is what it looks like during the day
All in all a pretty fun project and I'm really happy with the way it looks.
Thanks for watching!
