Please more info on what lights you used on the rack and the tailgate. Also more detail on how you did that awesome switch panel and part numbers, supplier, etc... Excellent mods so far. Thanks.

The lights on the roof rack are Lifetime LED 2.5" square utility lights (link).

I don't have a link to the light under the tailgate; Marshall at Trollhole's sourced that.

The switches on the panel are from OTRATTW. I bought them through Southeast Overland. All are Contura V style with separate lights top and bottom. The top is independent (green) which illuminates when the truck is cranked. The bottom is dependent (amber) which illuminates when the switch is on.

1. off-road lights – V1D1GHNB-PZCG2-10R
2. fog lights – V1D1GHNB-PZC4S-17U
3. rear roof lights – V1D1GHNB-PZCRR-1A4
4. left alley light – V1D1GHNB-PZC58-1AL
5. right alley light – V1D1GHNB-PZC58-1AR
6. fridge freezer – V1D1GHNB-PZCFF-100
7. aux – V1D1GHNB-PZCM8-100

Everything is run through a programmable power module, but I don't have the info for that handy. I'll see if I can find it.

Any chance you would be interested in doing a small write-up on how you wired up the rear cargo light?

Thanks for the interest, but I didn't do the wiring myself. All of the installation and wiring was done by Marshall at Trollhole's Cruisers in Greenville,SC. I'll ping him to see if he has any pointers to share.

@Trollhole - would you mind posting up how you did the above and what circuit you tied into?

That was the light. I tried several lights in that location but thought this one worked the best. Wiring was pretty simple. Pulled the rear headliner welting back and a couple feet of the headliner. If you're careful you can get the headliner to come free from the sheet metal. Then find the hot wire going to the dome light. You want the one that is always hot. Then ran it through the rear hatch bellows using a small fish tape. Then to the light switch which I think I got from rigid. That's about it.

My favorite light on this truck is the one I installed in the engine compartment. Got it from Waytek

It can take the heat of being right over the radiator and it's 300 Lumens bright.

Contura switch mount are made up of two of these

and these http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Sea-Systems-Contura-Mounting/dp/B000XBEVG0/ref=pd_bxgy_sg_img_y

You can make them any width you want and the seams are virtually invisible.

The PDM is pretty cool. You can program it how it cuts power on either switch, constant, or even a ground, You can program it to delay the circuit turning off up to 3 or 4 minutes. And you program the fuse rating for each circuit. Which will reset after the ignition is cycled. It's programmed through a USB port in the back. Once it's programmed it won't forget the settings even if the battery dies.

OMG! That engine compartment light. Must. Have.

Super nice work.
