But on this topic I have been trying to figure out what PDM to go with, Had looked at build the Bussmann, also looked at PDM 60, Making my own board with relays etc.

PDM is power distribution module? I went with one of these... is this a PDM?

Yes PDM = Power Dist module
That will work for things that don't need a relay less then say 15-17 amps draw b/c most the rockers everyone running only rated @ 20amps but the only way to really know what things are drawing is to buy some gauges to take readings with powered on.

Have bunch of the Led Lights hung but again waiting on packages to arrive, The battery strap showed up and one of the brackets snap while installing it so I went to parts store and got an u joint cap, Way stronger worked great.

The self tapers are both into the steel bars that run each side of the washer tank holder where I put the PC925, The 925 is solid like a rock.

Here is a nice chart for running wire based and your amp load.

Pdm 60 is on the way, will be working on wiring everything up in the coming days, also will be venting at same time everything is torn down.

Trying to find more info on Bellows vs Tubing for the vents finding mixed feeling on the subject feel the bellows would give cleaner look and simpler install.

I read somewhere someone burned up a tranny or something with bellows ?

Yup, don't do it! Due the tubing. Look at Traveler II thread to see why.

So my back up lights showed up and my 12-6 trailer wire also came in, Tonight I got most everything torn down so I can run wire, vent tubes etc.

Got the back up lights mounted and then ran out of time but will be back at it tomorrow night if I get time.

I shot a few pics of the vent lines for anyone that hasn't seen them yet.

Also finding that half of all the hex bolts tops are striped from the factory, want to scream!!! had to use easy out on two of them, Someone @ the Honda plant needs hit over the head with the impact driver...

[utvmi]

So I had to start the LE up to check, and I have a I 4WD Light on on the dash checked all the fuses there all good, Got to love it, Machine has 12 miles on it,

 

[utvmi]

Got the rear diff, fuel tank,transfer case, shift/cable box, all vented each one has its own hose so if something goes wrong it wont effect anything else, Lines run all way to roof, used brass barbs instead of plastic.

 

[utvmi]

Waiting for wrap/sleeve and filter ends suppose be here tomorrow will take pics of roof line when finished

 

[utvmi]

Also ran my 12-6 trailer cable in wrap from second battery all the way to back, Gives me 3 circuits all in one cable run, Will be using two right away and 3 circuit for later item...

Did you completely get the reverse lights hooked up? Are they bright enough for your liking?
Do they appear to be indestructible?

They do seem pretty close, you would have to hit them really really hard and it would have to be direct hit to center and still might not be enough to break them.

I got them installed on the box, wiring should be done on Sunday that's when my order with more connectors comes in, I just won't pay that top dollar at the stores when I can order 10x more of something for less then store wants for a little package of 3 connectors.

I will post up pics after its done.
