Quick update, been working away on tons of little things on my Patrol, mostly trying to get this wiring all ran and bundled back up. While trying to get the wiring under control I needed to fab up a couple new mounts for the windshield washer bottle, alternator bracket and the circuit breaker that I am using instead of a fuse type. Enjoy the pics.

Nice work. Wiring can be a pain.

I like that washer fluid setup. Adding one is definitely on my list. I don't know how that wasn't a standard item.

Love the work done.

I liked a lot the "Texas style" circuit breaker. It is big!

Wiring is my FAVORITE part of the project.... 8-)


Well, actually it's my second favorite - My real favorite part is firing up that huge V8, and listening to the exhaust rattle the windows in the house....

However, since that's highly unlikely to happen with the Patrol projects, I guess wiring will have to be my favorite. :twisted:

Rob, I'm not far away. I could actually be failing in health, i get dizzy when i see really cool Patrols. Your pictures are speeding up my condition. Oh and did say that I don't have the time to rebuild and store my Patrol? Maybe you could pick it up....work your considerable magic on the restoration...then when finished to your ShowPatrol standards ......call you and convince you that giving the Patrol back to me is the only proven approach to reversing my condition? If you will consider this I will start practicing falling down. Patrols to Paradise, L60Boerne

HAH - Looks like somehow I'll need to book a road trip to Texas into my hectic schedule....

Free barbeque and beer? That's like offering a tree-hugger free granola and spring water. :twisted:
