Got some wiring done yesterday.
Oil pressure gauge is now illuminated.
Engine fan switch is now wired up (can turn off for fording creeks).
It is wired through an sPOD.
Since I didn't want a relay to stay on to have the fan work, I had to use a second relay which is activated by the sPOD (it is a five pin fan relay). Despite the additional complication, this is a much better way to wire this. Otherwise, a failure in the sPOD, aux battery system, wiring, etc. could cause my fan to not work. This way, the failure mode (no power to relay) is the Jeep fan is controlled by the OEM Jeep fan controller--everything works as if it had never been modded.

Upgraded fogs to some Pilot driving lights, finished my fender cuts, rewired the side markers, mounted my cb and cut my sliders to give a little cushion. Pretty good day.

Thanks! They shipped with the six panels unbolted so it was easy to get them painted red before bolting them on. I'll see how the paint holds for touch up purposes but may end up getting them sprayed with bed liner.
Removed the WESTIN steps that were on me JKUR when I bought it and installed the LOD sliders to match from and rear LOD bumpers
I like the paint job on your sliders! I have the same sliders, but all black. In hindsight, I wouldn't have had them powder coated and done something similar to you.

Got my Evo builder corners on. They're more meant for a 4-door, but they still fit and I think they look awesome. Im removing the Or-Fab carrier and probably going with the Evo setup
