Im back. Bunch of pics.
Well After several weekends I FINELY got these suckers hooked up! Been waiting on time and parts. So I got 2 of the 100 watt spots and mounted them to the axle with 2 pipe bands each.
Took a while to find out what wires went where in this mess that some one made for me. There are wires coming and going everywhere!
Put the relay on the inside of the frame after I did a waterproof job with some tape and got it up out of the way.
Next I ran my switched power and a ground to the lights. I ran a ground just to play it safe and have a ton of wire on hand. Ran the wires in that plastic wire covering, through the frame rails and down to the axle.
Lastly I ran the wires to each light zip tieing the wire to the axle. And man them suckers are bright. Cant wait to try them out later!
Shot of headlights.

So this week 2/20/2012
Ive just done some here and there stuff to the truck.
Got a flat on the way to college ended up being late but good news I can change a flat in 7 minutes "flat".
Rewired my fog halo's had a wire loose. Also coated the connections in waterproofing.
Lastly I fixed my cup holder my friend broke. Ive been kidding with her that the cables have a 300 pound breaking point.

Went to the tire shop and then hole ended up being to big to plug so I guess I'm getting some new tires. Also going to debadge and detrim the truck in the morning.
Got the 2500 and SLT badges off today dident have time to get the black trim off.
Used a heat gun and a pine paint stick you get at lowes with paint. I took the Pine stick and sanded it to a point to help scrap the sticky off. It worked great! did not mess up the paint or anything. I still have a bit of stuff stuck on the pass door but it will come off soon.
Before
Getting the 2500 off.
Heres the Finished Product! Also Got them SLT Badges off easiest of the bunch.

Just for anyone who wants to debadge their truck I found to get the sticky stuff off towards the end lighter fluid works awesome. Just use that with a good rag and buff it off. Also will help take off any left over residue that will attract dirt.
