I ran two 10-AWG wires to the roof using this thread's help; thanks to everyone who contributed!
One is for a rooftop solar panel, and the other is a 12v supply, not sure what it will be used for yet.
I ran them under the window trim because the solar-controller and power are in the engine bay.
The solar panel is at the front of the roof too.
I stayed with the MC4 connectors and can add a ground deployed panel with a standard cable from the roof.

Sold my 100 series and picked up a 2013 w sub 100k. It will be a kid hauler / mall cruiser for the next few years...but that won't stop me from browsing this forum and drooling at your guys custom builds.

Welcome to the club and nice work posting a pic so we don't get 15 replies of "Pics?", "Got a Photo?" etc. Sounds like a good find.

And in its native habitat at the gas pump, no less. I'm amazed at the number of first posts are at a gas station :cheers:

Agree with welcome to the club!
 
Love Amazon green. Best color they’ve ever made, IMO. Tough to find. I flew to Houston to pick one up once, but the condition had been badly misrepresented by the dealer.
Thanks. Definitely is different. Me coming into a J200 didn't think much of it. Until reading more on it. I get a lot of looks and comments from people. Mainly Yota/offroad crowd.
 
Finally did the screen delete. Big difference. And added Molle panel mainly for accessing a few items...mainly the "hog hammer".

How much do you want for the screens? Or would you be up for letting me borrow one to see if the connectors could possibly be modified to upgrade my tiny screens in a 2015?
 
I’m *this* close to picking up my new LC! Literally! Currently sitting in a motel five miles from @Eric Sarjeant ’s shop for a Tuesday morning delivery. We were going to drive from Ohio early AM, but weather didn’t look so good, so drove today before the ice storm. Should be fine by the time we head home.

I’m like a kid on Christmas Eve!! 😁

Congratulations. Stock or a build? Safe travels home.

You'll be stoked.

I'd be good to meet up and see if they could work for you. Shoot me a private message.
 
There's something sneaking

Where are you mounting that BCDC? What size wire did you use from the engine battery / alternator?

I mounted it on the optional bracket that fits the Slee auxillary battery tray. I used 6-AWG from the starter battery, the installation instructions specify 6-AWG or 8-AWG depending on the run. I went with the largest for lower losses.
