Brian thinks Justin did this mod. Justin??? Where are you??

Good project for the get together.... 12th is good by me!

I did the replacement harness when I put in my Sport headlights. Power directly off the batteries, triggered by the original headlight plug. The combo of sport lights and new harness was a HUGE increase in lighting.

I might be in
Someone is trying to twist my arm to go ATV'ing at a new place that weekend though. It is a mud place, and I'm not in a mudding mood.
Hope my clutch is broken in by then, it's hard to put 500 miles of driving on it when you only commute 11 miles round trip

Rob - Bring them down to Fairfield! That will put some miles on the clutch and I would like to try that Polaris....if the offer still holds.

I ordered extra relays so if they work (make headlights brighter) got a set you can have. Your the EE....... think they will work?

RJ,
Sure they'll work
If I come it will just be me and the truck, not going to hook up the trailer and quads. But the offer stills stands.
I also owe you and Charlie some GPS answers. I am only working until 1 today, so I will get on it when I get home.

Depending on when I'm passing through, I may see some of you. Heading to Houston on Friday afternoon to help a friend move into a new house. Should be headed back to Dallas on Sunday afternoon at some time. If you guys are still around Sunday afternoon, I'll try to stop by for a bit.
