XJs4Ever Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Did this last month. Sooo simple! The beauty is attaching it to the rail you can move it forward/backward to suit your style. Grab a roof rail off any Cherokee but grab a rack too cuz they changed year to year. Cut the rail to two 21" sections. Add the endcaps and screw to the cab roof with the rack attached so you have the spacing accurate. Attach your fave lites and neatly hide the hot wires under the rubber moulding, wire them in series. Shrink-tube the splices. Ground each light to the rack. Ground the rack to the cab. Run the hot wire thru the the cab via a grommet and under the panels to the dash bezel to a switch. I made my circuit protection redundant meaning the power AND ground wires both have inline fuses. I'll be damned if MY truck is gonna burn up due to a crappy install! Personally, I think it looks professional and almost store bought. I wired mine to a illuminated rocker switch that matches the manual aux fan switch that all Jeep owners eventually install.

I get alot of inquiries as to where I got it and was it stock yadda yadda. Idiots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
