I wonder how many people noticed the Easter egg Broncos on the flange?

I'm planning on doing this rack swap and light setup today or tomorrow, what was your strategy for running the wiring for the lights? I thought about going straight to the front, and down the A-pillar, but I also run dual spare batteries behind my passenger seat for camping and off-roading to power a fridge and other accessories, so as to not drain my primary battery, this would then let me have the switch be mounted in the rail beside the light, one for each sideProbably last update for a while, added JCR Offroad Grabhandles and JCR Offroad Rack Mounted LED Area Lights![]()

There is plenty of space under the mount locations to run the wires, in fact the JCR rack doesn't use all the factory holes so you can route through those instead of drilling new holes. For my car I ran them through A pillars, saw a video of how to pop them off and it was easy enough.I'm planning on doing this rack swap and light setup today or tomorrow, what was your strategy for running the wiring for the lights?

What would be your thoughts as someone who's done the install, about drilling a hole in the roof beside the existing mounting holes to run a cable down the B pillar, and to just RTV silicone up the hole afterwards. how much room is there after the rails are in to get a wire in beside?
Thank you for sharing your Bronco with us! Hope you are having a blast with it.I went skiing. I will try to get at least three more days in before the first or second week of June. Winter does end at some point.![]()

You weren't kidding when you said the installation wasn't easy, managed to get it done at right around the 5-hour mark with 2 people. I used one of the free holes right above where the OhSh*t bars were in the rear seats to run the wiring for the lights. They hadn't arrived with the rack as I had hoped so I figured setting up the wiring with the rack would prevent having to drop the headliner twice.There is plenty of space under the mount locations to run the wires, in fact the JCR rack doesn't use all the factory holes so you can route through those instead of drilling new holes.

I have a solar panel routed through the rear hatch, it just follows the weather stripping down a into the the trunk through a bitch I cut under the weather stripping.
Probably that recall was for the drain tube install with PCM ProgrammingHad it towed to the dealer cos it totally died on me! Just had the PCM Programming recall done 10 days ago.
Just noticed the one on the rear glass the other day when looking in the rear view - and never these three.I wonder how many people noticed the Easter egg Broncos on the flange?
