I just had the tint installed. Was planning to bleed the brakes and clutch,somehow, I need to replace the rubber caps as these turned brittle. Lesson learned, do not assemble masters if you still do not see the need.

A 21" LED bar (spot/flood) right on top of the winch, One 41" LED bar (flood/spot) right in front of the roof rack. One 7" LED flood light on each side of the vehicle and two 7* LED flood at the rear are installed for better road view for night driving and heavy rain downpour. The 7" LED bar is just for added utility light if ever needed.

I don't know if most of you agree with me. I bored a hole on both the rear pillar right behind the rear door, around 3/4" so I can insert the wires that connects all accessories on the roof rack. After researching and studying the move. I finally did it.

I know not a lot of 60 owners out there including myself are hesitant to do what I just did. But the end result is just fulfilling.

Some close up shots. I need to do some realignment on the wire from the hole to the top on to the roof carrier.

Oh my, looking good!!

I did a little modification as I got some negative comments on the wire that goes through the pillars and comes out on the side. The tinsmith or the "Latero", as what we call a person who works with sheet metals, will be done before the week ends. I would rather get some pictures when we are done.

This just came in. Fits well and looking good. :clap:

That is looking absolutely fantastic!! Excuse my ignorance, but is the tint being installed on the outside of the Windows?? That is a good mod on the pillar wires!
I have just bought a pair of Toyota Corolla seats for the front of mine and instead of a centre console I will use a Waeco 11litre compressor fridge - perhaps food for thought??

The tint is installed on the inside. What they are doing in these pictures is making a pattern from the outside of the window glass.

Spent a lot of time in the wiring of the A/C system. First, I bought a blower and evaporator from eBay which was 12 volts. Second, I bought a compressor from eBay too with a 12 volts coil. Both auxiliary fan that cools the condenser are all 12 volts. My system on the other hand is a 24 volt. I had to change the coil, blower and compressor coil to 24 volts. What a wiring and rewiring but finally got it going. My sound system is a 12 volt Pioneer but is also taken cared of by the converter I bought from Ali Express. 24v down to 13.8 v.
