  • just received my Pillar switch today and the new versions are coming with the 2 clips. My jeep is 800 miles away on a VERY SLOW train to the US East Coast from Toledo - getting the accessories pulled together now while I can. THX again for the great vids.

  • Dude installed TODAY after all with the confidence and gotta say and BIG thx for support ,took about 2 hrs ,honestly the hardest part was tracking down a firm wire to pass harness wires thru engine compartment to cab ,I had picked up 7ft plastic sleeves from Habor Freight to pass all wire thru the engine compartment and tuck along with draw ties looks neat compared to hanging wires loose and protection also,thx my man

  • Dang this is one of the FEW 20 min installs that actually kept my attention 👍, I went to 4 wheel parts and purchased KC C3 spot pair for front and a 20 inch led bar and had planned to cut into panel...but ended up buying the same POD 4 switch and now that you made freaking wiring a WHOLE lots of easier 😂😂😂😮 I'm down to do it myself tomorrow..dude ya put a very good video together and simplistic as F* props ta ya 👏🏻🙀👌

  • Great video. Just recently found your channel and enjoy watching. Love the idea of making jumpers for the ground and constant for the switches. Saves pulling and stashing a ton of wires. My one question is where do you connect the single constant from the switches. Do you have to connect all 4 relay wires to one? Would love to see the final pic of your 4 relays wired. Mine are a separate with no double “block” as you show. Thanks again for the videos!

    • Thanks Steven! Glad you joined team AdventureDex. All switches have a separate replay. I had two double blocks in the engine bay. The constance was run to 1 constant power, in my case the cigarette lighter. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!

  • great instructions. thank you. I have another question. when doing this install should you install it that you can only turn lights on if your ignition is on or will this cause problems with the vehicles computer. also I found it difficult to install the pod unit. should I shave or cit some of it down?

    @edwinbrea4108@edwinbrea41088 жыл бұрын
    • +Edwin Brea Great questions! First question - Because I hooked my consent power directly up to the battery, I can use the lights whether the ignition is on or off and it will not effect your Jeeps computer system. It is simply using power from the battery while the engine is off. Second question - The pod is a little awkward and does take a lot of patients, if you think you can shave it down then I guess you can but I didn't shave or cut. I just made it work the best I could. Let me know how it goes. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!

    • +Joe Velez Thanks a lot for the positive comment! There are firewall plugs which are rubber plugs between the engine compartment and the interior foot wells. You should be able to push the wires through there. If the rubber plug is not big enough you can cut a larger hole in the rubber plug to fit bigger wires. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!

  • That fit on the pillar was a bit crappy @ 18:30 - do you think that the plastic was malformed or it just doesn't fit right? Looking at wiring block optins under the hood (SPOD, The Waterproof Relay Box on FaceBook, etc) but I really don't want it to look like aftermarket or a hack. Were you able to align that switch cover any better so as not to see frame by the window? Is it an adjustment or it just fits like that? Thanks for the videos - super helpful and interesting. Anxiously awaiting a 2017 JKU in the same color scheme as you - a man with good taste.

  • Hey Dex quick question: are your two yellows and two whites connected on the relay holder? Mine have one yellow/white on each side and was wondering if you simply tucked one wire into the other side, or if you sauntered the yellows and whites together. I hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance.

    • +Anthony Ramirez Thanks for the comment! I always recommend not to use the code of the wires on the relay as indicators but rather the actual numbers written on the relay holder itself. There will be numbers such as 85 86 30 and they all coordinate with a functionality of the relay. You should check out my video on how to wire a relay to learn what each number means this way you can ignore the color of the wires and use the numbers. I hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching!

  • Hey AdventureDex, I recently purchased a 52" light bar with 2 3in spots and an A pillar rocker switch panel. The lights already come with a wiring harness that is wired to a button switch, but I was planning on wiring the lights to the A pillar switch. Would I need all the items you used including the double relay sockets, the relays, and the inline fuses in order to wire the lights?

    @tecson3603@tecson36035 жыл бұрын
    • If you already have a wiring harness you wouldn't need all the relays and infuse however you just have a simple wire running from your light bar you would need it for the switch to work. Hope that helps!

    • +Edwin Brea Good question! Yes, you should pre-wire it all even if you don't have the lights yet. So when you add more lights in the future you don't have to pull everything down again. You can simply connect a few wires which you can hide under the foot well. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching! #jeepwave

    • +Melissa Borstad Thanks for the comment and questions! Exactly, you could get a wiring harness for each light bar so that they would all have a fuse and a relay. Then you could cut off the switch (but keep in mind the switch might have 3 wires you will need to test them to find out which is the positive and negative) the switch wire connects to the switch on your RR pod. I hope that helps! Thanks for watching!

  • When you were running the final wires from the lights, where did the negatives from the lights go too? And when you ran and looped all your constants, did you run the end constant all the way to the battery or did you loop it into the 12v on one of the switches. Everything else I understood.

  • This wasn't such a tough project, of course I already had switches in place and simply moved wires and removed under panel switches. I used someone's idea of heating the blade and it trimmed the panels quickly and fairly straight and refined to fit with my file. I had one blip but it was a non issue. I used another person's idea of running all switch wires to the side panel and I'm ready when I put the windshield light bar on my 16 Wrangler unlimited. Looks professional even though I'm far from it. Thanks for instructions.. (In July 16 it came with all silver clips).

Typically there is already wires running through the firewall so you can use the existing hole, if not simply cut an X into the firewall and that should help keep its integrity.

They're sending me a correct drive side over night free of charge (let's hope it's right this time) and hopefully I can finish the install on my daughter's Jeep. I was watching your video and thought it looked like a passenger side at first and thought maybe you went thru the same situation.

  • Probably should have assigned the top switch for the top roof light, the next switch for the mirror lights and the second to bottom switch for the winch light with the bottom switch for reverse. Makes it easy to switch them on without thinking especially if you need to turn something on or off quickly. It also allows others who drive the jeep to know intuitively which switch does what.

    @albdrs@albdrs7 жыл бұрын
    • Thanks for the comment Raffi, to connect your interior lights to your switch pod you need to get the positive and negative wires from your interior lights and connect them to the 2 prongs on the back of the switch. Assuming you already wired each switch with constant and ground. You shouldnt have any problems. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!

      @adventuredex@adventuredex7 жыл бұрын
    • I just reread your question and are you asking how to get the wire from the engine bay into the interior? If so, there is a firewall plug that is located on both the driver and passenger sides in the footwell. If you use a flashlight and look up, you will see a black rubber round grommet with wires already running through it. You can use that to safely get wires in and out. Thanks!

  • This is completely fucked up install.. and its not safe at all. So here how it goes. I have led bar, pods and backup lights. Each of them have separate wiring harness and relay fuses of course and ran directly through +,- of the battery. What i did is just cut all of the switches inside the jeep and connect through the pod switch. Clean install via firewall all the way to the pillar. So if any fuse busted just in case, you are not ruining the whole system..
