This was this weekends project.

I thought of this at Pismo a few trips ago when we were trying to find a place to park the trailer in the dark. It's 400,000 candle power and has a little remote control that works up to 100 feet. I have seen a few of them on boats and even on some little fire trucks. I wired it through the roof and down to the batteries. While I was at it I ran the wires for a couple of reading lights under the cabinet above the bed. The lights had to be ordered, they should be here tomorrow. I dont know why WW dosen't already have lights there?

Rod That Rocks, Great Idea. Love It man. Where did you run the Wires. I did the Reading light mod last weekend and run them down the left side cabinet and into the wire loom that goes to the Pin Box Receptacle. Battery Hot from truck and Trailer Meet there.

Lets see, went in between the opening in the shelf, through the cabinet on the street side, behind the drawers, through the floor, along the underside of the trailer under the bed, through the wall at the rock guard, and down to the batteries with a line fuse.

Kool Did same thing except went in on the Driver side and put the in line fuse in the Fuse box atached to the Pin Box.

I also drilled into the middle of the two panels above the bed through the left closet and then took a router and made an 1" line across the 1X2 holding the two panels together in the center of the cabinet. Then fish taped the wires through.
