quick and dirty LED light bar mount
This upholstery shop did the headliner in my Explorer Sport, did a fantastic job, so I went back to them to do the Disco. They're one of the better upholstery shops around, so you get what you pay for. And I'm bound and determined to do what I can to stimulate small businesses in the local economy, lol...
Ah...I just paid $475 to get a new headliner done at an upholstery shop, so I'm not quite ready yet to start drilling thru the roof. I'll take the Disco to the auto electric shop that installed my new speakers, and ask the guy about wiring up those light bars, and if he goes thru the roof, how he plans on dealing with the headliner, and making it water-tight.
i was going to do that, but the rest of my truck is so clean i didnt want to ruin it.
Good primer and prep is key, of course
Primer Kiltz type?
What has me full stop is routing the wiring from the outside to the inside? I'm no automotive electrical guru, so I'd probably mount them and have a shop install the wiring and switches, but would like to get an idea of how the wires for the front and rear light bars would get from the exterior of the vehicle to the interior, other than the obvious solution of drilling holes in the roof...
The relay to power the lights is n the engine bay and then I only needed to run one wire through the bulkhead to the switch on the dash.
