What have you done to your K2 today?


Recommended Posts

Added some LED engine bay lights. Went with a sealed push button vs pressure switch (since I don't need a light every time I open the hood)

Installed the painted tow hooks! I like it! Don’t worry about the grease smudge on the skid, I’m getting it washed now

Not my truck, but had a local member come by today to install Illuminated Door Handles. I bought his rear bumper from him some time ago. His truck is bad ass!

Here are the lights - only $10 for 2 on Amazon: http://a.co/48H87qq

 

Here is the switch I used: http://a.co/hGwJyGh

 

I used self tapping sheet metal screws to mount the lights in the oval holes of the hood frame. They aren't quite big enough, so I had to slide them toward the inside edge. It was plenty strong to hold them in place, and they have a ton of clearance room. I fished the wires through that same hood frame to the fuse box side and connect it to the other light. I was initially going to tap into the fuse box for power, but couldn't get inside cleanly so I ran a wire directly to the battery along the firewall. I tapped a ground wire into the spare battery bracket. I haven't mounted the switch yet, but I'll probably just zip tie it to something with 3M tape on the back. It's not something I'm planning on using regularly, so for me it doesn't have to be super fancy - just accessible. I'm very happy with the light output though! And can't beat the $17 cost.

Sounds good. The link to the lights appears to be the link to this thread. Any way to get some pics of the wiring connections?

Yup! Vented into the top of the supercharger! Should have snapped a pic but was trying to beat the heat with this install.
