Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Id wire to cig or ign. unfused (put a fuse in line) or the radio...

Probably ign unfused would be best...But in my case wiring to radio/cig would be ok too (no radio/cig lol

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

ok i looked at my fuse box and theres a wire for either cig light or radio and it had from the factory (it looke like it factory) and i plugged the spot into that... i forgot to test so it was night time and member 1972hays was over and said hey lets show your dad your lights work! so we turned to ACC and started turning everything we could on to see how bright it was and tyler decided he was going to turn on the spotlight..... IT TURNED ON RIGHT AWAY! very cool im having trouble with the radio light and getting power and my windsheild motor and pump are shot i need bulbs for the park lamps and i need to mess with the wiring so i can plug it into the van nuetral saftey switch so my rear back up lights dont work other then that every thing works! i messed with the spot for awhile it was cool.... the battery didnt have full power though, and the spot didnt help if my spot still keeps draining the battery even when my engine is in and the alt. is doing its job then im putting in a auxillary battery just for the spot. anyways heres a pic!

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

Looks good Ricky ! I personally dont like spotlights because they remind me of Police pulling me over But they look good on these trucks. Make sure you have the battery charged and load tested to make sure it is a good battery before you add an aux. battery for the spotlamp. I really dont think you would need one just for it. The spotlamp looks just as bright as the headlights in the pic ! Thats cool, Nice progress

IF you tried that, you would need ALOT of tall cans to get me out, but on the bright side, the reaction would be non-violent as long as they didnt run out

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST

I have to agree.....it's your truck....but remember that circus wagon had tons of different parts going on...not just a fender and hood....in this case it'd look best painted to match
