Can anyone share how they routed the harness from driver’s side? Curious if you’re tucking it under the cowl, etc.

Just ordered my a-pillar XL80 SDHQ kit from Nick - I’ll post pics when I’m done installing [emoji3]

Thank you for the support, Matt! They'll fit nicely with the rest of your Baja Designs setup!

the SDHQ instructions are pretty clear. The biggest variable on the install is where you run the wires. I tucked mine under the cowl in the tray that runs across the cowl under the cover. if using the normal BD harness, you may have to extend certain parts and shorten certain parts of said harness.

I just installed my Hood Mounts with some Squadron Pro's last night on Alternative Offroad Hood Mounts. I will post some pics later, but I did have to cut and extend the stock harness that came with the squadrons, as it wasn't long enough to reach both lights, and have enough slack to route cleanly. Not a big deal, but something to think about.

Love the look and the light that the hood mounts put out though, much brighter, and really helps. I found that the stock lights with just brights were not enough when offroading at night.

Yea I have a bunch of bulk wire left over from the four 10” S8s, 40” onx6 racer, and dually cubes so I figured I would just run the wires with some existing conduit I already setup to run above the top of the engine. (You can kind of see it in this picture)

finally got around to posting pictures of my Baja Designs Squadron Pro's on Alternative Offroad Hood Mounts. Love how they look, and they came in handy this past weekend, when we were out wheeling, for longer than anticipated.
