Camped out at Curawine Gorge, weather was fantastic, super impressed with the Grenadier, I can understand when they say its built on purpose, roads were washed out and really should have been closed, the Grenadier got us through, my co-pilot didn't film any of the harrowing scenes as she was shitting herself 😆😱

Out on the South Downs yesterday.

Low, centre locked, occasional rear locker - no problem.

Another weekend and some more tinkering...
I added the victron 500A battery monitor shunt. I had left the car with the power switch on and used up a lot of battery from my fridge. Car started but it was at 20%. The monitor is great, gives me prediction of how long my battery will last at current power draw etc.

Also took off my side steps in preparation for my new rock sliders from dissent off-road that is being installed on Friday.

Also cut the rival sk8dplate. I noticed when I took it off that it had made contact in that corner. Super easy to do with a jigsaw and aluminum blade.

I installed the KC HiLites FE4 Grill Light Kit from Shadowmarq Industries. The installation was easy with the help of YouTube instructions, but the wire connections have been a pain—I still haven’t figured them out.

The lights look much better than the factory ones, though!

I think these will be the winner for me. Along with a blue bezel to match the eldoret blue grenadier :)

They are spendy ($1250 for the kit) due to the custom enclosure likely but I think they look great as compared to square lights retrofitted into round enclosures.

I finally installed my new light in the cargo area.
I purchased a flat LED light from Amazon
(https://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B0BK8BYJ7L?tag=globalgrena0b-20)

I took out the original light and cut the cable. Then I crimped normal plugs on each side, so I can reconnect the old light if I want to.
I pulled the plastic cover over the lock down on its “motor” side. It cones out there easily. The “exhaust” side is still fixed at the height of the door sealing.
I pushed a speakers wire from the hole of the original light to the plastic cover (under the roof lining)
One hole for the new lights cables in the plastic cover, two screws as well, three more sets of crimped plugs (new light and speakers wire on both sides) and everything has been finished.
I build in my Bison Gear rack and everything is perfect!
The light is dimmable, can be switched to red for hunting and switched off. It doesn’t shine out in your eyes as the plastic cover is bend inwards and hides it from outside (at least for my height) on the other side it gives plenty of light under the rack as well.IMG_1994.jpegIMG_1993.jpegIMG_1992.jpegIMG_1995.jpeg

These two should be a perfect match!
The only thing I don’t like about this kit is the price, haha... But as you said, the custom mount bracket and bezel fit the KC lights perfectly and look great.

This is great. I am going to replicate this. Currently I have 2 of these lights, battery powered, motion activated and magnetic stuck to bottom of bison rack. They need to be charged once a month. I prefer hardwire. This is a good location and solution.
