Great light bars for roof....

[VXRaven]

I am MORE than interested! This is my email: snowwolf83@hotmail.com. You can also private message me on this site as I'm doing everything I can to get my VX fixed without pumping anymore money than I need to in it!

I have a question though: if you look at my last post in the VX Troubleshooting thread, I completely forgot to mention the problem with my fuse board. The guy that previously owned my vehicle had ghetto-rigged a LOT of stuff to the fuse board and it wasn't until I went through an entire box of fuses that I decided to figure out what the hell was wrong. Apparently the previous owner rigged a wire that connects the "trunk popper" button to the same fuse that runs the internal and head lights.

Point is, I want to add those lights to the top of my VX, but I don't want to screw up my fuse board more than it has already been screwed with. What do you suggest?

I never like the idea of even touching the fuse board for any reason.

If i add roof lights to my VX (which i'll deffinetly do) i'll just run a independent wiring from the battery + terminal,run a - wire to ground or chassis,add a in-line fuse to the the + wire,run it the wiring thru the firewall & add a switch to the dash,that's all.

Isn't necessary to mess with the fuse board at all to add roof lights.

I added a nice set of blue LED light nozzles without touching the fuse board.

I just attached the nozzle's + wire to the left + head light wire,add a 0.5 amps in-line fuse to it & run the - wire to ground,the LED's lits up only when my head lights are on which are barely use.

I'll posting few pics this week end in my gallery's album.
