Hi guys
I have a 2013 and I want to install an additional battery for charging basic electronics when camping. Can anyone point me in the right direction or know a shop/person that can do this?
Thanks

Even if you haven't done a lot of vehicle mods, a dual battery setup isn't necessarily that intimidating. Would you do it yourself if you could, or do you have constraints (time, physical, etc) that make it impractical?

For cheap and cheerful, you could even do something as simple as a jump box that you charge at home and throw in the truck when you go camping, then you can even carry it to your tent / whatever, and charge it through your cigarette lighter when driving. An integrated dual battery system becomes important when running a winch / fridge / ham radio / etc, but sometimes simple is better!

Give the folks at Happy Trails 4x4 in Atlantic Beach a shout. They've done work on my rig before and I was extremely pleased.

If you buy a kit it really is an easy install. I would suggest the dirty parts kit. Everything you need is included. Took me about 3hrs to run all the wires and switch. Oh and I am NOT electrical by any means.

I'm in Florida looking for the same thing. But I'll travel anywhere in the South East. Up in NC a lot. Imported a 1991 Mitsubishi Delica. Looking to do a dual battery setup so when I'm camped I can run ipads and laptops and turn on stereo/dvd for the kids, listen to music, turn on some awning lights, etc. Basic stuff for those in the know. Electronics is my achilles.
