P1000m5 New to forum...needing advice

[DerekC]

Excited new owner of a P1K! I had all the plastics removed and had them rhino coated to give it a more murdered look. It turned out great! I just ordered a switch plate from mystic1219 and it is awesome, got switches from OTRATTW, ordered lights for front, back, and sides, and will also attempt to put LED's on the interior. All of the ideas and products have come from people on this forum so thank you all! I have decided that I will run all my accessories from a 2nd battery even though it's not necessary. Can anyone suggest a product that could make the wiring for this easier? I will need all the help I can get!!

Welcome to the forum, sounds like you've been planning for a while.

I like the look of the bedliner, there are a couple of Cooper bussmann PDM that are pre-wired. I used a Rowe Electronics PDM60

It's gonna take a while to get it all wired, connections soilderd and cleaned up.

Do it all before you get it dirty, crawling around under it and trying to find the correct wire colors under mud isn't fun.

Welcome from North West AR. The 2nd battery is a good piece of mind to run. I used a fuse panel add on to distribute my power. I went in an measured all the amperage my lights and stereo would pull and was able to do through the switches and fuse panel - no need as of yet for a relay

Awesome and welcome! Use the box like @ohanacreek mentioned and you'll be good!

Amen to that.

Welcome from SE Tennessee. I've always liked that look on vehicles. Seen several jeeps and trucks with that on them. Any estimate on how much overall weight it would add to the Pioneer?

I would only be guessing but I don't think it added much. Maybe 10 lb's at the most. The material feels really light and is not the exact same as would be in a Bedliner. I also had them leave the plastics that were already black and not coat them. So it's mainly the hood and 2 side panels on each side.

How much was it to shoot the hood and two side panels?
