Giving back a little Install video & write up

Thought I would try to contribute back since I get so much of my info from you guys...

------------------Installing Custom Metal Tech Sliders -----------------------
you can find a HD version of the video along with a write up with and more pictures on the Adventure Road Trip Blog

YouTube - Installing Sliders on a Toyota FJ Cruiser


------------------------------Scuba Mod------------------------------
yes another Scuba Mod! for anyone not sure if they can do their own scuba mod here is a short video relocating the elocker and rear differential breather up to the gas cap area. The write ups on the forum are great and have all the info you need... now go and make your FJ Water Proof :-)

YouTube - FJ Cruiser Scuba Mod


------------------Not Your Mother's Headlights----------------------
Installed off road lights on the rig, so I created a video (campy but the ending is worth it) and did a write up w/ some pictures. I put it all up on the blog Adventure Road Trip along with some other resources I used such as Toyota's step by step bulletins.

YouTube - Off Road Light Install

I would really like to know if the information is helpful, what I can add to make it more useful to others.

Thanks again for all the great information contributed by everyone here...
Here is the end result

Re: Giving back a little

Excellent video again.

Did you make the lightbar yourself? Thanks for sharing. That video was clear and very easy to see.

The lightbar is tuffy. I did some customizing and it did not work out as well as I would have liked for my installation so I'm going to look at a custom build suited to the bigger lights and the multiple mounting points.
