Wired in a fuse block, a cigarette plug, and 2 USB plugs. If you look closely you can see the ARB fridge plug that is hardwired poking out of the ash tray. I still need to do a little clean up on the wiring, but it all works great and I like that the switch controls whether the plugs on the panel are hot.

Looks great!!!
However that’s like the gateway drug, once you got power to the back then you want other things like inverter, compressor and more power, then solar/dual smart charger for your second battery.......might as well order your rear quarter panel Mount from @NLXTACY now. :p

I started just about exactly like your current setup and rest is history.:hillbilly:
 
Getting ready to do valve cover gasket, figured I’d listen to the warnings about not busting off my Radiator nipple....came up with this. The little set screw allows the nut to be tightened without getting a wrench into and under the awkward frame piece where the bolt head is. Indexed with a paint marker for your protection, as the bolt is drilled to capture the point of the screw. Catchy name too.

Guess what I’ve been working on. No torch so I had to MacGuyver it.

Ahhhaaa! I thought of that...My gas hood struts DNF, and this "device" interferes with my manual hood kick stand, so I can foul-it up...ok, knocking on wood now.

no spacers the rears rub a little on full articulation on the inner fender walls but nothing major
 
did a little normal maintenance: Yokohama Geolander ATs in OEM size (I know, I’m boring), replaced DS power seat gear, and today an OEM air filter replacement. I did read through some of the old K&N threads which are pretty funny before buying an OEM filter.

hood hydraulics a little shaky today during air filter exchange. might need to replace them. also, jonesing for one of those engine stickers now, too ... so I ordered one from wits end.
