LED SafeGlo Whip

[RatedSVT]

Any problems with the whip hitting the tailgate when it's mounted their? Like it's denting in alil?

The whip is flexible, but still fairly stiff. I wouldn't be worried about it denting anything.

As you can see from my first post, I had the whip attached to the rear fender with a Sticky Whip suction mount. Going through the dunes jumping and doing doughnut had no problems. The mount held tight and once removed left no marks.

Would it not make sense to hard mount one of these to the trailer receiver? Or would there be damage concerns there?

That would be a great place to mount it.

I'm not sure why people think there is a possibility of damage to the truck? What am I missing?

It would be easy to build an adapter that just pins in

Hey Yukon or anyone else, can someone please post pics of the wiring and where you connected in to? I would like to see how this wires up. Thanks!

I just spliced in a 4-pin trailer plug that I bought at Harbor Freight. This way the LEDs are on anytime my headlights are on.

That's exactly what Yukon did. Also it was pretty easy. Joe is not much of an electrical guy and he never complained on that one. Good luck, I think you'll love it!

Sounds easy enough. I'm not afraid of some light electrical splicing, but don't like getting to deep into the vehicle's electrical system/wiring. Sounds like this is a DIY'er then good. Thanks all!

I did the same thing on mine.
