Hey All, after a few camping trips I'm realizing a few that things I need.
1. A cargo rack to get camping gear/fire wood out from inside. This is because my wife and I mtn bike and like to keep the bikes inside away from prying eyes and road elements. The catch is my Jeep barely clears my garage now so the rack needs to be easily removable. I have this sorted out my using some Yakima channel rails permanently mounted to the hard top.
For the rack I like the Surco Urban rack with Yakima low profile cross bars.
2. More lighting... We like to camp at removed spots and I'd like to set up some LED lights on the rack that I can wire to 4 separate switches depending on what side I need lit up.... side to side and front or back. Up front I'd probably run something powerful but the others I'l like something more ambient.
I want LED for the low power draw.
So my question is this.. I need advice on how to run the wiring through the hardtop and what kind of quick disconnects would be best for the light.
Sorry for the long winded question...
