Plan is for hammock netting at the top to hold a couple of towels, sand board and gold pans. Then mozzie net hanging underneath coz we like sleeping with the windows wide open.
Rail under the front window is to strap dive tanks.

The devil in the detail. Flatbar hoop welded to flatbar mount secured by canopy bolt. Plan on replacing these with eye bolts as tie downs Image

Tube running front to back, bolted through slotted tongue. Image

Crossbar under window has welded plate for bolting. Image the bolt is not as close to the ‘glass as it looks, the frame only touches the canopy at mounts. There’s some sideways flex but not much front to back. Compression foam, like pool noodle, in the corners will sort it out.

Took the dremel to the old switch plateImageand fixed that undersize lower left switch spot Image fixed with a liberal amount of gorilla epoxy Image
Looks a bit rough in the pic, but doubt I’ll see it I situ. If I bog and paint, it will just be for the exercise.

Finished panel fitted up with goodies from Air On Board. Image The switches look and feel great. Needed all the slots so I’ve gone with the round USB charger in the second accessory plug socket.
The Aux power is for a ‘switched accessories’ bypass, so for example I can leave something charging while off for lunch.
I’ve got fog lights in the bullbar, but none of those other lights yet! Oh well it looks the part.

For the uhf. The XRS has a hideaway base unit, hand piece plugs in here or I can unplug and put in the glovebox.

Got around to installing the Utemart flares today. Bit fiddley but not too bad. They are +10mm bigger than SR5, I think it’s about right to blend with the bullbar. ImageImage

Wired up all the new switches and led spotties this weekend. 4 on the RHS of the steering column, 6 in front of the gear stick made for a pretty heavy loom.
Inline diodes for the two switches with high beam:ImageImagetaped it all up after this to keep it a bit neater. ImageImage
Each switch has two led’s, one wired to dash lights the other to show when it is on.
I’ve used 7 core trailer wire out through the fire wall, to run as triggers from the switches to relays. The LED spotties are the only thing wired up at the moment, but I don’t need to get behind the dash again for the rest. Image
I’ve got 4 of these to go onImage thinking one on each of the bullbar wings at 45’ and another each side between the cab and canopy, for spotting camp sites along tracks.
