If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

What I'm curious about is how its mounted and where you ran the wires. Did you drill holes from the top? where did you route the wires? I am planning on mounting 2 optimas where the spare tire is, possibly on their sides. So any input or pics you got would help. I always freak out before I drill the first hole, lol

Basically i drilled four holes in the floor for some grade 8 bolts to mount the battery cage. I can't remember it exactly, but i think there already was a big hole in the floor where i routed the wire inside. I ran the wire to the front battery along the right frame rail. There was already a wire loom, so i ziptied it to it....

they say you're not supposed to get them wet but I've submerged my ballasts many times and they still work good.

those pictures are pretty sweet too

Ok guys, that`s crazy:

I`m sitting here in germany, ordering things in the us and have them shipped to an adress in the us. Next week i`ll fly to canada, drive to the us from there and pick those things up...

Ordered a HID Kit 35W/5000K for my new driving lights and some 1,5" rear wheel spacers...
