Nice mohawk :o

I think I would've put the switches up higher though- that's a stretch while you're driving. The wiring looks clean, the mounts look good, how well do those LED's-by-the-inch show up in the daylight?

I can see what you are saying about the switches but that is what the owner wanted them. Thank you I tryed my best with the wiring. The LEd by the inch show up good in the day time. Thank you again.

with those switches...there comes a time when "where the owner wants them" becomes "where you convinced the owener to put them", in terms of safety and usability...some times it takes a little tough love to convince the vehicle owners, but after a couple of times of showing them how an errant foot, or a long stretch for the switch makes it inconvenient, or maybe even a well placed gymbag can hinder the switch operations...they come around.

true but when you are an two hours in to trying to tell the owner your side then you just do want they what you to. the owner has not said anything bad about it so he is happy which makes me and my partners happy

hahah, gotta work on the powers of persuasion, young jedi! After a while, the lines "trust me on this" start to enough weight when doing installs, because all the other installs you have done can let your reputation speak for it self.
