As for the LED's, they came with the unit. They arent wired up, so thats something i need to look into too. If you find anything regarding wiring them up please let me know.

Had a bit of spare time today, so thought id have a go at making a center console out of pallet wood. Pallets have been sourced locally free of charge . Im by no means a carpenter and all i had was a tape measure, scissors, drill and hand saw. Im sure that at some point its going to fall apart, when it does ill do it a bit differently.
Just need to make a lid tomorrow and some cup holders.... might just get a piece of ply for the lid anyway heres some pics from today. Will get it finished tomorrow

Right nothing done for a while now. Had enough at work today so i decided to come home early and stick the units in the van. Might give me the umfff to get off my arse and start ordering stuff to get the van done. Money is an issue at the moment, but there are a few jobs i can do bit by bit really.
Anyway units are now in, works with my work kit in there (being a work van). Units are a bit ropey in places so ive decided to make my own. Will use these as a template when i eventually get round to it, but for now they will do for now. Need to figure out how to wire up the LED's now

Got my square side bars about 3/4 weeks ago now. Havent got them on till now as there was a slight issue with some extra metal work under my van on the fixing points which stopped them from fitting in.
Well today i got a crowbar at it and bent it out of the way.
First picture is the bare metal as i picked them up, 50mm box 2or3mm thickness (forget which it was). Ive done a rattle can job on them for now till i am ready to get a few things powder coated and a couple of things sprayed.
Very pleased with them, they are something different to the round ones most people have. As im going for the swamper look these will look good when i have my AT tyres on eventually
