    Looks good Bart...

    I'm going to order the connectors as you suggest. However I'm not entirely sure how I'll wire yet... I just may be going through the center off the roof

    I installed an electronic Sunroof in my S10, so I think a small hole will be ok in my VX... not entirely sure... yet.

    Thanks for the updates and images... Zeus yours looks like the "IDEAL" size... can it fit a spare? I'll just check it out tomorrow.

    Later!

    Yeah, I have noticed that I can easily hit the 300 miles per tank mark with my basket and spare off the roof. I guess wind drag really does make that much of a difference.

    Hey, I updated the photo. You can see the WeatherPack now. Its kinda ugly, with all that tape and what not, but unless you are taller than your VX, you probably won't even see it.

    If you're taller than your VX, you need more lift & bigger tires...

    I'm waiting on 2 more lights to get here than I'll get to work. I'm installing Two Hella FF100, and Two Hella FF300, got them for a steal. Hopefully they do ok mounted on a roof rack as opposed to below the headlights.
