wiring foul up

hi again i have been doing the wiring what a pain in the ass. anyway everything is starting to come together. i also found out that to make the leds work right you have to install resistors otherweise they wont blink and be bright enough. what a mess or well here are a few pictures.

hi there. got the off roads lights working and brakes and turn everything works. now for the bad news the dome light stays on all the time oopppsss. also the led brake lights flash slow i guess i need a heavy duty flasher. at least with the dome light on i can see what i am doing. also the electric fan does not come on but it was getting late so i know what i did wrong. i think. all in all its been a half crappy day but getting closer.

heres a few more pics of some of the wiring and fan. what a zoo. almost hung myself with it i got all tied up:bang::bang: i dont know if you guys have heard of these but here goes. i am using the wire end that have solder in them and heat shrink built in. all you do is cramp them heat up solder melts and seals them all in one no soldering iron need. i like them but not cheap about 1 dollar apiece x all i need = expensive. oh well a least its done right.
