2012 Stereo Re-Build...

After I spill all down the side of the boat I grab the window washer squeegee and wash the side of the boat and then squeegee it all off. Finish with a paper towel wipe.

Same here, I do try to be a bit ahead and stick a paper towel or 30 around the nozzle, then if it gets by the windshield washer takes quick care of it.

Stereo looking awesome Ian.

Chawk yea stop being a weiner about filling your boat man LOL. JPetty does it the same as i do also, just stick it in set it to the Lowest auto setting and stand there listening to it. When its about 3 gallons from full it will sound a lot different. I also use paper towels and stuff them in the filler neck.

@ those guys using the windhield wiper to clean the gas, now i know why i cant get a decent winshield clean LOL.

You might even look into this, im thinking of getting one for my bike and see how it does on the boat.

I made more progress yesterday; got the newty Transom LEDs installed, ran the 8AWG +/- for them, hooked up the relays for all of the LEDs, and started wiring some of the in-boat lights.

My starting point; the single newty LED spot;


Yes, I know, the light on the left is off-center - the drill bit for the wire wandered when I was drilling, resulting in what you see here. I'm not too worried about it, since its under water 99% of the time;


I wanted to put them on the outside of the exhaust, but there wasn't enough room, and on the outsides of the platform brackets the hull is filled with foam, so I wouldn't be able to get the wires through without much aggravation.


I picked up some 1/4" Starboard for the trim panel for my subs, hopefully will get to that tonight or tomorrow. Things are really coming together

Whoa, thats a snug fit. I'll bet they throw a ton of light!

Dude, you're going to blind the guppies!

Yea, I didn't measure or anything before I bought - I'm glad it worked out, lol.

After testing them out I found that they illuminate my entire garage blue - I had the "bright" idea to look at the lights, to make sure all 3 were on - yep, they were, and I saw spots for like an hour.

I did the same thing lol. Just so ya know... don't look directly into the lights cause they're bright.

LOL - Hey, once we get the avatars fixed I found your new one!
