RE: urban exploration. How intriguing does this look? Gates of Hell, Clifton, NJ.
This was my great switch panel idea.
I had a project box in the engine compartment with 6 relays in it. I used a length of CAT-5 network cable; 1 conductor was constant +12, 1 was key-on +12, and 6 were the returns from the switches. The relay box was sealed with a terminal strip on the outside labeled 1-6 and an ethernet plug in the side of it. Worked great. I had all 3 sets of lights on it, winch activation, cutout for the stereo amp that powered my sub and front speakers so I could pop the tailgate and just have my 6x9s going, and something else...I forget. Airhorn maybe on a momentary toggle.
I still have it, somewhere, but I think the box filled up with water and corroded all the relays. Also note the 5-band EQ and crossover peeking out from under the steering wheel, and the original idiot-light gauge cluster. The 6x9s were later relocated to here to free up cargo space:
That actually worked *really* well.
Yeah boy. Light bar!
Still have this too. Used to ride it to class when it would snow (I rode a regular Razor most of the time).
This was the beginning of the end. Spring 2005 maybe. Locked rear, locked front after the next wheeling trip, the day I put on brand new 33" Trxus MTs, still daily driven for about 7 months after this shot.
