Hardwired my Escort Redline radar detector to the fuse panel, added a USA-SPec interface for the iPhone and a ProClip to hold it.

This week they are finishing up on the instal of the IBS dual battery setup, with the running of a switchable dedicated line to the rear for the ARB fridge, adding next week the thread outlet for that line. Had the ARB diff and transfer case breather hose extensions added. The shield for the rear e diff switch mounted. And finally had the three Slee skid plates mounted. went with the aluminum for the front and middle ones, steel for the belly plate Ran into an issue with the belly plate. There is no way to mount it and keep the slider mounts, so we cut off some of the slider mounting plates and threw away the mounting bolts and back plates for the sliders and welded them to the frame. Makes them sort of permanent but a lot cleaner.
Landshark, I've added the IBS, but am finishing out the direction connection to the 2nd battery, do you mind elaborating how you are connecting it to run auxiliary devices like the fridge? I'd like to power some electronics, but I want to go direct to the aux battery and I'm wondering if I can just change out the rear connection as I think it would be easiest..
Put new battery in key fob. 15 years on the original, even the Japanese batteries are great!
At this point we are leaving all of the aux stuff still connected to the main battery except the fridge outlet, instead of changing the rear aux outlet wiring, we are bringing a separate wire to the back, which I am then having the ABS screw socket installed just for the fridge. That line will have an independent switch at the dash, so it can be live with out the truck being on. AT the moment all I am doing is a fuse in line but wi eventually add a fuse block and run any new acc of of it
Purchased a '99 with rear locker and good service history at auction ( my work) Clean truck for the wife. She wanted to sit higher for the weekend migration over the cascade mountains. Audi allroad is a good car but sits low and In the spray of the trucks. Kids have named it " mom beast". Parked it next to the '95 80 that is my weekend wheeler and camping rig. I have to say it is much more refined and I think they like each other

Does the pro clip attach to the air vent vanes? How sturdy is it, wheelable? Concerned about air flow blockage? I want to mount mine in that spot but have not found the right mount. Tried two already without success.
Yah, one side clips on the vent, the other to the edge of the gauge cluster. They use 3M tape (in addition to the contoured edges that 'snap' onto the edges) to hold it in place - in my previous vehicle it never moved, this one feels equally solid.
It blocks maybe 10% of the vent, not really enough to worry about, imo.

Thanks man! I would love to take the side steps off. But my GF is 5.2 and she already has to jump in as it is..... Haha
Looks good. I would not change it.
Installed the OEM clear turn signals:
BTW - if anyone needs used turn signals (stock, with orange reflector), I have a pair here, no cracks, etc.

I am told Penny got a world class cleaning but I am back in the states so I haven't seen it. The guy apologized he was unable to buff out all the scratches 
Agreed
