    running light wire

    I'm installing a sun visor with lights on my 01 explorer sport and am trying to find the best location to tap into the running lights to attach the five lights on the sun visor too. Looking at the wiring going straight to the lights I think it should be a brown wire but can't find a convenient...

    Is that the actual model that you bought? It doesn't show that it fits the 2001 neither do any of the other models.

    pop when turning lights off

    theres two different relays for two separate sets of lights so its not a bad relay. ok, that makes sense. How would you go about using a grounded shield? Is it just a special power wire that is grounded as well? Is it even worth the fix or should I just deal with the pop once in awhile...

    Post pictures of your truck with auxiliary lights

    thanks. I really like the way it all worked out. Everyone says it looks like a police vehicle having the lights behind the grill. They were a real pain to get setup back there since there isn't much room at all to work.

    pop when turning lights off

    Nothing is connected near a stereo connection except on the battery itself. I have the switch going straight to the battery and the relay. The relay is wired straight to the batter for power and ground. The lights are grounded to a front grill support. Its only when I turn the lights off that...

    pop when turning lights off

    I have two sets of extra lights on the front of my explorer. I originally had them wired straight through the switches but added relays recently. Since I put the relays in every time i turn the lights on or off there is a pop sound through the stereo. What would cause this by just adding...

    reverse camera wiring

    I installed a reverse camera on my 01 sport but need to find the wire for the reverse lights so the camera comes on when I put my truck in reverse. I checked the wire coming from the reverse light itself and it is black and pink. I used a meter to check every black/pink wire in the drivers and...

    Fix a cross threaded spark plug hole

    those back taps are a pretty neat too. Never seen anything like them. Wouldn't mind having a set either would be nice with the standard sizes as well.

    shocks for lowered 01 sport

    I have an 01 sport that I have been planning on lowering for awhile. I also need to shocks seeing as I have 86,000 miles and original shocks as far as I know seeing as half the rears are rotted away. I was wondering if there were some different length shocks that would be better for lowering...

    box under rear seat

    is it hollow? would like two sides be able to be cut out and an amp mounted through it? I've seen people mount amps under the seat and would rather do that then have it attached to the back of the seat as i do currently.

    box under rear seat

    the rods go behind the seat in the floor. This box is actually under the seat itself.

    box under rear seat

    A friend spilled a drink in the back seat of my 01 explorer sport the other day and a pulled part of the carpet up under the seat and there is a large black plastic box under the seat under the carpet. I was just wondering what this box actually is so I dont unbolt it and pull it apart to...

    Thieves amoung us..

    the same thing happened to me a couple months ago. Had both front windows smashed in my stereo, subs, amp, ipod, gps, cds, and other stuff stolen. The police just wrote up a report and left it at that. My insurance paid to have the class fixed but not for anything that was stolen. I'm still...

    chrome bulbs

    Ive heard that takes the brightness out of the bulbs though With the LED's for turn signals do you need some type of resister set up to balance everything out? or do those bulbs have it all built in. Others i have needed extra wiring. thanks

    About to order -- Help

    I had to get the 16"s because the 15's were to small. They rubbed inside on the brakes. but I believe it is just the sport that has the larger rotors so you should be fine. http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=CRR-3977812P&N=700+115&autoview=sku those are the ones i...
