So with the interior lights being fubar'd ever since I bought it . I have decided to do something about the nonworking lights.

I took one of these and plugged them into a USB plug and man are they bright!

I then wired the power from the socket to a switch then to the usb plug.

I did the one for the rear slightly differently to spread the light for when I camp out.


because of the way that these are wired I can use it as a charge slot also.
Next is an anderson plug for my fridge . Summer is coming :ylsmoke:

I installed a led RV light I purchased from Amazon, It's bright as heck, also. I tried to upload pics but they failed.

i really should do that in the future . these were cheap ,available , and already in my piles of assorted electronic crap . ive had to rethink my plans since i blew up the Pavement Princess . I think i have a plan.. But first a trip to Kamloops to get my muffler replaced. The darned thing blew apart down the seam, on the way to Kelowna. Its about 4 months old So I'll have a few words with them about materials quality :exclaim: And i wanted to go ice fishing...

Gutting the old crap out of the way, now I have a shiny Weber in there. lots of space for a spare battery now.. and a space for a something or other when i turf the Cruise Control that dont work

 

[PPCLI_Jim]

Carried on the gutting of all the useless stuff under the hood. Got rid of the Cruise Control sputnik and some more EFI stuff thats no longer being used. I got the tachometer working according to Johnny5ives video vice Shooters instructions. Still waiting for the rad for my Rodeo [in on monday ] but i can run it as is now, with caution. Parts to make the Trooper's auto trans are also in the mail be here in a week or so.
