Man your X looks really good!
Thank you so much !! its getting there for sure slowly but Its almost at the point how I like it now )
Very helpful video. However, I have a totally unrelated question. How do you keep your engine looking so clean? Did you post a video which I missed?
Thank you ) as to the engine no I didn't make any videos on that yet I just clean it before winter a little perhaps I could make a video on that later )
The metal gear solid sound 🔥😂
haha ! ))) Glad you like that bit in there ))) trying to keep my videos funny
Messing with those roof rack rivnuts without oversizing some new ones... I imagine you've had a leaky cabin and have now fixed the problem.
is that what you had to do ? put a bigger bolts in ? like bigger size or longer ?
Sorry you struggled so much. I learned a lot though. Thanks!
You are most welcome ! )) hope you learned from my mistakes what not to do lol ))
Hi. Nice video and can i ask how did u mount the relay right now？ I m struggling about mountain relay and couldn't find a nice place to mount it. Thank you
hey ! originally I had it placed with zipties near the battery ... but now I have a 8 switch relay switch box and all my wires connected there
Hows your battery without starting it for a week?
hey we had pretty cold weather with temps 16f to 40f and that small led light didn't kill the battery I still will test it more and soon there might be a 2nd led light next to it 😉
Looks great man! What wiring harness should I order?
Thank you very much ! what LED bar are you planning to use.. ? and I would always go with just biggest gauge wire you can get
@@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO I'm seriously thinking about going with the same light bar that you installed on your X. I'm just not sure which wiring harness to get.???
@@shakeyperspective3981 You can try this one.. see if it works.. I mean it has a lot of good reviews with just a few bad ones .. and good luck ! let me know how it goes

Hey man did you ever find a solution to have the led on the switch turn off? I’m sure it doesn’t drain the battery but I would like a solution. I’m ordering the same light bar and wiring harness
Hello thank you for watching ! well I had 2 switchs on my truck for over half of a year maybe ? and it been fine.. BUT you can simply remove red jumper wire going to pin #6 I believe and it will eliminate blue light when truck is off .
Also I just finished video on new controller I just installed to remove all those switches for something better ..
And goodluck on your install please come back and let me know how did it go )
Wondering could you tell me what size washers you used. Thanks, I've learned a lot from your videos.
hey glad you find this videos helpful ! now for the washers what washers you mean ? the ones I used to lift the brackets higher or other ones ?
@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO thanks for responding. The ones that adjusted the light bar. You said in the video you cut in half I believe you said.
@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO the black plastic washers. *On the sides of the light bar.
@@stevenshumate3430 OOo those things Ok I believe when I cut them they were both about 1/2inch each or approximately 12mm . that was actually a TV bracket spacers that I had laying around so just cut them . Hope this helps )
@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO Thanks. hope I can get them.
Can you put a link to the exact light bar you bought please
Sure thing it was 42 inch one

Can you use the amber lights mounted in the grill?
sure why not I use them all the time since the day I installed them )
@@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO sorry I meant can you show us the amber lights mounted in the grill.
@@waynebeck7801 sure thing ! I have a video on how I did it here please check it out and feel free to ask any questions

Never put LED bulbs in reflector housings. They glare everyone AND it's worse lighting for YOU. I wouldn't even put that in the description for the video, disservice to everyone
Maybe you right maybe who knows.. but you know at this moment I needed better light output in my headlights.. and by putting LEDs its way better..
plus Im sure im not the only one running LEDs in there... also I dont think nor they bline people that much... people have now way brighter lights on newer cars so ...
By chance is there any door mounts for a light bar that fits nissian frontiers?
hmm what do you mean by door mounts ? lol
@@DIY_AUTO_PHOTO like mounts that attach on the inside of the door and stick out the top to attach a light bar across the roof
@@deezshlong1265 oh no.. never used those before..
