    LR4 firewall access for a cable

    I have a passport 9500i and I dont use it in my LR4. 1. I drive slow in my LR4 and 2. I do think the radar detector has issues behind the heated windscreen. The GPS also is super flakey. It's a great detector though. I should probably sell mine.

    A little overwhelming...

    Some more ideas for you... I actually think having the polymax flooring helps with wind resistance a bit. It doesn't allow as much disruption on the rear parts of the rack. The key thing you need though is a very good wind fairing. It helps a lot with noise and must be doing pretty well...

    A little overwhelming...

    Welcome to the polymax flooring club...haha. Great stuff really. It is light, strong and no rust worries. If you use heavy duty zip ties to secure it, make sure and check them (or replace them) about every year or so. They can get a bit brittle. I have also used u-brackets and stainless...

    Maxtrax group buy?

    The dilemma for me is that black would look good on the roof rack, but orange would be preferred for actually using them.

    Maxtrax group buy?

    I need two sets also, but the price has kept me from buying. I am interested if the price is right.

    Solution for glare from roof lights?

    This is what I am referring to... I just use some big washers and wing nuts on some plastic mounts. The mounts move forward/back and the wing nuts let the light be adjusted left/right.

    Whoa.. Cool. Makes me washers and wingnut approach look lame. Ha-ha. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    LR4 Auxiliary Light Switch Options

    It turns out that the light bar casing is grounded. So is the rack. I bought a nice switch/relay kit for the front bar. All is well. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    Solution for glare from roof lights?

    Why do you bother posting here if you are just going to be grumpy and passive aggressive? Upgrading headlights is just fine and I am sure people are interested in that option also, but light bars provide a different purpose than just upgraded headlights. That should be obvious. This forum...

    Solution for glare from roof lights?

    My solution to this issue was to get a 37" single row ~1" high light bar and fit it under my rack between the fairing and the roof. Fit is perfect and the roof blocks the light on the hood except for a tiny bit from the side flood parts. It is only about 100 watts, but its plenty bright for my...

    LR4 Auxiliary Light Switch Options

    I just wired up some rear work lights (OPT7 C2) with an OPT7 wireless remote. It has 4 dimmer modes and strobe also. I bought two, as it turns out the remotes are not unique per set, so I can only use one. Also, it didnt work at all with my 37" light bar. It just turns on and the remote does...

    LR4 Roof Rack Flooring and EO2 Case mount project.

    This doesn't actually show the final hardware I used, I was just looking for alignment and where things would go here. I wanted them long enough so I could use big washers to support the underside of the plastic mounts, and lock nuts, but not long enough that they were too close to the glass...

    LR4 Roof Rack Flooring and EO2 Case mount project.

    About 15 very stout heavy duty ties, but they only support the polymax. They have nothing to do with the EO2 mounts which attach directly to the rack. No load is put on the polymax. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    33s on an LR3? Yes, but...

    Maybe at the sills, but not at the diffs.

    Traxide dual battery kit (LR3/D3); any comments on which version?

    I never thought that the draw from the isolator would be much of an issue.... hrm... math time! The aux battery alone that I use is an Odyssey 34-PC1500T-A, with 20Hr Nominal Capacity (Ah) of 68. Using Peukerts capacity calculation (http://planetcalc.com/2283/) you can calculate a rough...
