    How do I run speaker wire from scratch?

    I could use some advice on this topic too. How do you route the wires into the doors? How much interior disassembly required, also? Thanks Ed

    Leaking 3rd Brake Light/Cargo Light 1995 K1500

    When I bought my '98 K2500 a year ago I was warned by the PO that the CHMSL was leaking. Repeated "fixes"over the years pretty much destroyed the housing I lucked out; and found one on e-Bay by saving the search criteria & getting daily updates. The gasket was a little funky so I bedded it in...

    Suspension overhaul

    Thanks I never knew Rock Auto was simply a sales hub; and had assumed a series of warehouses across the country. Not that I've had problems with them. But it now makes sense considering the way they show different shipping locations at checkout. I agree BTW A local pick up option based on their...

    Adding fog lights with high and low beams

    Nice idea, 22210! Have you considered running them off a floor switch like they did in the good ol' days? How are you planning on mounting them in the air dams?

    Retro fit keyless entry

    Good idea, Svein Using the receiver to trigger relays makes a lot of sense. Now it's time for me to understand exactly how the door lock switches are used in the circuit.

    Retro fit keyless entry

    Hello I have a '98 GMC K2500 Sierra SL; (Ext Cab -2 doors) The SL, as you know, means the base model. Manual Windows (crank) & power door locks.

    Door striker

    Agreed! Working from the outside is the easier way. If careful you can break the existing switch into pieces small enough to pass thru the hole. Be careful not to lose the wires into the dash Also, it seems from my part search via 1A Auto that there are 2 different switches. The difference is...

    Ammeter Wiring

    Perhaps I was unclear RabdDidIt I meant making a ground bus, fed by the battery negative, from which engine, body,chassis and other grounds emanate. Agreed about how dangerous a big chunk of positively charged copper bus could be.

    Ammeter Wiring

    My thoughts almost exactly RawbDidIt Except that have bee considerng a hefty 250A (or greater )bus with at least 4, 1/4" studs. Wiring would be battery negative via shunt to the buss then all other grounds come off the buss. However Have you read RichLo's comment about all the other grounds...

    Ammeter Wiring

    Don't make the same mistake as many pleasure craft owners do; and name/refer to it as a girl. Give it a masculine name appropriate to a true man 'o war. No suggestions come to mind that would not offend someone, somewhere. Thoughts! Thanks for the advice, RichLo Ed

    Ammeter Wiring

    Thanks What if I were to do the same thing but instead of the positive; consolidating the grounds onto 1 bus bar? BTW Your project eems to be taking on nautical proportions. Something like the multiple batteries, charging circuits and isolation of small yachts
