    Looks badass and easy to do. I'm thinking of giving it a shot. I want to light up my ride all around.

    I like the fact you used a CB antenna so you could still use it for a CB radio also ya thats old tech ( I was in the Nov 8 2018 Camp fire there was no cell phone service it was driving me crazy I could not call my wife wasn't sure if she got out with the kids. ) Well shy did so is there a brand of antenna you recommend

      No not really, any of them will work. Just make sure they’re thicker one overall.

    How did you connect both together. Is the wattage work if you just slice the + and - to each other

    • @DerangedOffRoad
      @DerangedOffRoad  5 років тому

      So the control box for the whips had two connections for the light strips. Then on the other side of the box it’s s just one connection for the power. We just bought an adapter for the tail light of the razor and we wired the power there. It will handle the wattage just fine.

    Great video, just made a pair with smart Led strips. Are the roll bar mounts listed here for the cross bars on a Teryx? I believe the cross bars are 1-3/4 and main are 1-7/8.

      Hi Buddy, the clamps come in multiple sizes. If you follow the link in the description, you should be able to chose. The ones in this video fit our RZR 1000 xp.

      Use an air tank and blow air in the other end and it’ll slide right over.

      You can buy little rubber caps or use the ones that are on the poles with shrink wrap. Yes we ran both off one controller.

      To help seal the ends better to keep water out as much as possible.

      Muddy boy Offroad yes the RGB is waterproof and after the clear heat shrink seals it off as well. Now fully submerged under water probably wouldn’t do that. They should be just fine in rain and stuff like that.
