All my external lighting is powered through that post (ditch lights, underhood LED Strips, Raptor grill lights, Mabett roof light bar, LED light bar fog lights).
Commandorebob - Thanks for sharing your installation experience. I'm one of the other lucky winners from Wolfbox's giveaway. My SmartSlide Electric Retractable Bed Cover just arrived. Since we're now into a solid week of rain, that heavy oversized box you're familiar with sits in our home's...
It may be counterintuitive, but the black is where I draw 12V for all my external lighting. I run 12 V through a under the hood control box and then to a ceiling mounted interior switch panel.

Ryan - Mention has been made of the availability of apparent clones of the taillight units from several other sources. Is there something different between Mabett’s offering and those others?
