well today i think i may have saved the excursion more body damage!
i was side swiped well in my explorer by some jackass! ugh! why do i have such horrid luck?!?
i guess its a blessing though...since i want to repaint it all green again anyhow.

i now have lighting around me in all directions! love it!
added 2 small 55w driving lights to the running boards. wired to a switch that is ignition hot. this means i can leave the switch on when i shut the truck down. then when i remote start it both sides will be lit up.

couple shots of the switch, out of the way down by the OBD2 plug in
