What did you do with your Grenadier today?

I actually meant the tube-shaped one below the door... that was the bugger! The upper one paled in comparison.
Yeah I didn’t even bother trying to get it through there. Ran it along the strut using some plastic covering, then drilled a small hole below my fridge in the door panel, placed a rubber grommet and called it a day.

Well done jamming it through the rubber tube and fishing it.

What are the advantages over the stock rear bumper?
Different reasons for different people. One is aesthetics. It is a one piece steel weldment, plenty stronger than stock. There are two sets of aux lights that can be installed. Will likely take impact better than the stock unit.
 
Feeling some frustration... I finished installing my Wolfbox and wired per @AndyT suggestion:


Turn the car on and the center screen is blank and the ADAS lights are all on... Wolfbox works as intended. I then unplugged both BATT and ACC and reinstalled fuses and sure enough, the center stack works and ADAS lights off, but triggered the Check Engine (could be coincidental, as I just filled my fuel tank for the first time).

Back to the drawing board to power the unit.

Any thoughts on what might be blanking out the center screen? I did swap out the 15A for the 20A factory fuse in the Wolfbox jumper lead.

I'm making no assumptions here so apologies if this is lowball...

1. Fuse jumpers must be installed in the correct direction. More info in the attachment (from the first site that came up on Google).
2. You may have installed a bad fuse. Test both fuses for continuity with a multimeter. If you only have a voltmeter or a test light then verify there is power on both sides of both fuses when the ignition is ON. Test from each fuse to ground.

Edit: Just noticed this is my 1000th post. My K-cherry has been popped 🙆

Thanks for these thoughts. I'll definitely check the fuses, although since the Wolfbox works when they're plugged in, I am assuming (last thing I should do!) that the fuses are in working order... the direction of the the jumpers matches the suggestions in the install thread. I've honestly never used jumpers before as I always solder up my own harnesses, but figured I'd give it a try. Hadn't appreciated that they're 'handed.'

Boy, do I feel like a dummy... as mentioned, I've never used fuse jumpers before and just realized that they take two fuses. Voila! Success!

Woah, there... just because I had a sugar buzz on at the time doesn't mean it's ok to come after me for mail ordering my cheddar from the Cheeseman!
For those not in on the joke - I’m from the state of Wisconsin, @vtgrenadier is from Vermont. We don’t have much to offer the world, other than dairy products and maple syrup, so you have to get competitive about something, right?
 
Just installed the grenadier works map light glare shield. Works exceptionally well and zero glare. Very unobtrusive as well. Look at the pic and you see how well the light is focused on the seat area but not in the face of the driver or passenger.
