What did you use as a power source for the lights?

Not quite sure what you mean as a power source for my lights. Ummm my 12vdc batteries in the truck will be my power source.
Sorry if that sounds so..... Dahhh

The lights have 22 LED lights each and are the independent Amber strobes for snow removal

I think he was asking where you ran the wire to get juice to the lights.

Exactly. How did you get the power from the batteries to the lights?

robert, I dont think he has run the wires yet since he said that his 12vdc batteries WILL be his power source, and not that the ARE his power source.

Good spy eagle eye!

LOL Oh !!! Sorry I didn't understand... my fault. LOL
Ya.. I haven't run the wires yet. a lil busy this Victoria Day long weekend
But I was planning on drilling a hole in the floor just at the base of the back wall, below the back window. That's were the flasher controler will mount. Then running the switched power source wires under the carpet to the dash for the dash mount switch and the power supply from an available position on the fuse panel.

lol thanks, just ask jr

I got a couple of treats in the mail for my truck.
I have to paint the three gauge pill pod first before I install it.
but I just had to share it with ya first.
Still saving for a couple of more gauges.

why the pillar pods and not the dash pod.. they even make pods that you take out a vent and mount it there.. the pillar pods bring unneeded attention to your truck imo.. i like more of a sneeky setup..

I like the pillar pod. The in dash ones for the 07+ limit you to a max of 2 gauges. With the 3 pod I still may do an in dash gauge set up so I can monitor axle temps.

I just realized this gauge is no good to me. It's more for a gasser. I'm gonna need a gauge that monitors a better than 35 psi boost.

I'll just give this gauge to my son as a Bday gift next month

HOW MUCH BOOST ARE YOU RUNNING IN THAT THING..then again i have no idea what kind of boost a normal deisel puts out.. i just didnt think it was more then like 20 psi.. lol

if u can put up with this goofy guy, he hits 30psi in his excursion.........
