There are some people who ride near me that leave their bright lights on (High Beams) when driving. I installed a light bar on the front of my truck (My preference ) and so far, ive only had to turn it on twice to make the other person turn theirs off. (What I do is I flash them once with my High Beams and if they dont turn theirs off, I turn my light bar on and off real quick) (Its not the proper thing to do, but it works)

Poldalp, common sense goes a long way if you have any. But considering most American males have lost that connection from learning things from their fathers.. Chris is closer to being a genius, compared to young men of the up and coming generations. Thanks for the video, Chris. Someone need to teach people basic auto care. I doubt if my kids know how to change their oil or replace a blown out tire. Not because I haven't taught them, because their cheating mother wouldn't allow it and said her PW husband could teach them... yeah that really worked.

Sir, for your three (3) videos in the construction of your truck's bedrails, headache rack and mounting system for your light-bar, paint job and electrical setup ... a most excellent set of informative videos. You did your major projects so simply constructed, explained so well as you were constructing them, overall paint job and electrical setup, that you made me feel I was there helping you all the way. You Sir, made it look so simple to construct this time-consuming project, yet produced such an "elegant" home-made job. Your construct ended rivaling a professional job, and yet you made it happen "your" way all-around. Your truck's lights, plus the light-bar's, makes for sone scary sunlight. You are no doubt scaring the bejesus out of all those crazy furry friends, wondering just what has happened to their world at night, and reaching for their "Kaopectate". I congratulate you Sir, for a job simply very well made, and thank you for your hard work, as published.

Hey Chris, I just started watching your videos last week and i'm HOOKED! You put so much detail and thought into every project it just inspires me to do so much more work for my truck when i get back to her. Also the video editing and sound quality is better than most for sure! I installed an LED bar on my grille guard, two minis on the headache rack for full coverage and a reverse light a couple years ago with a buddy who knew a little more than me on electrical wiring. (94' F-250 with a 7.5 460 FYI) IT WAS TERRIBLE lol, before i left last year only the front LED worked and I didn't secure the wires at all. Watching your videos is great because i love to do very detail and quality work so thank you for providing amazing detailed videos to help me through the process. I am excited for all your future videos and success in the future, Good luck and thank you.

just turn it off when passing people, or do one like i plan on doing into the front of the truck rather than on top(this keeps it from hitting in eyes.)

Hey Chris, when you wired the additional 3 switches, are you going to jump them into the same fuse box slot 17, or does each switch need it's own fuse slot?

It's better to use a different slot. The slot he is using provides 12V even when the vehicle is off, but you may want to use a different slot for something that doesn't need 12V when the vehicle is off or even more, requires a fuse of a different rating.
