Victory 4x4 dropped molle panels this week: https://www.victory4x4.com/product/VLC250HMP.html

Just came across them, so no idea on durability. Garmin is pretty solid though and I’ve never had issues with my other Garmin products 👍🏼

Some good visor molle panels with bungees for glasses, pens, flashlights etc. I had them in my jeep and they worked well. The company also makes head and backrest panels: https://a.co/d/1uXPBj2 For storage, I’ve also used these as an alternative to the yeti bags: https://a.co/d/fnIlxyE

Garmin has a switch box that is compatible with CarPlay now. Probably a good clean option for the LC given the limited real estate. Probably what I’ll do if/when I add any accessories. https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/718849

https://a.co/d/4P5eTVl Here’s the one I’m using, fits fine.

Did you ever find anything? Looking to help a buddy hardwire a charge mat in his 1958.

I added a hot water spigot last winter as I got tired of cold driveway car/dog washes here in the PNW, so a hot pressure wash and a occasional touchless with the undercarriage spray to keep the road grime at a minimum. Does anyone have a favorite off the shelf wash/wax? Also any recommendations...

Puddle Lamps: https://a.co/d/1cMfrQK Not the coolest font, but a good price.

Thanks for explaining, I was reading up on how the magnetism works - this makes sense now. Seems like the transformer would work, I’m just not sure I want to be the guinea pig though…

Also, rather than the 2000w transformer, I would think you’d want the 3600w so as to allow the inverter to pass through all 2400w at load.

The 2000w would work well for my panel and application. I’ve already installed a 30A inlet box and plug, and I’m only planning to power 120V fuses on the panel with my generator/LC as the 240V (oven & AC) draw too much (leaving those alone). I’ll probably wait a bit to see what others decide...

Lockable Coho storage box from Costco (w/built in molle bags and trays). https://www.costco.com/coho-pack-and-carry-box.product.4000101667.html Front Runner Stratchet bungee tie downs for the anchor points in the back. In tandem these work great and are very affordable...

Exactly, thanks for sharing the why. This was a pretty easy/clean install, albeit my brother helped me and knew what he was doing. Maybe $250 in parts and it worked like a charm with my 2300w Ryobi Inverter Generator (after lockout). I was able to run everything on the panel except for the oven...

Appreciate the insight! Definitely agree on the interlock.

That’s what I read too, but I didn’t see that one 👍🏼

Yeah unfortunately Toyota grounded the inverter (for safety reasons) which conflicts with the grounded panel on the house. A shame Toyota didn’t add a switch to sever the ground when needed for this application.. This is the same issue Ford owners had with the PowerBoost. I think the only...

Tow mode should be the only mode keeping your engine on all the time.

Any electricians on here? is it possible we need an isolation transformer between LC and the panel to remedy the grounding issue?

I’m going to try tomorrow or Thursday as my wife was working from home this afternoon and didn’t want me cutting power and killing Teams 😂 With the interlock, I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. The main will be off and I’ll be feeding directly to the house via the fuse panel. Plan to start with...

I bought an Inspired Overland XL which is an ultralight RTT at 86lbs. Light enough for me to take off and put in the garage when we’re not out on the trail. Not going to keep it up on top all the time so I’ll take the fuel hit when I’m using it. Static load limit is 600lbs on the FE rack /...

Should be fine, I don’t have a box but I’m putting a RTT up on top and it will just overhang the moonroof 12-16”.

You should have no problem with the FE rack. It has (4) cross rails with T-slots. Your Yakima will probably attach with the cinch binding straps or the T-slot bolts that it comes with, whichever you prefer. I have a Fatcat6 that I’ll be putting up on top this winter.
