sayhuh? Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 Only one thing that I am not happy about. Something happened while I was hooking up the leds for the plexi and they shorted out and died. It is already siliconed and bolted in place and I dont need it that bad so I said fuck it. I am happy with the wya it looks now. Same thing happened to me when I built my bar. Lights worked fine, then installed the plexi and the rest of the front of the bar, the top..etc etc and bam, stopped working. Second LED strip to stop working on me, but now I have to take the bar all apart to get to them..boo. Mine was the wires coming out to connect to the controller. Very easy to break them for some reason... Love it though. I agree, the white is sex. Blown

Very easy to break them for some reason... Love it though. I agree, the white is sex. Good point. Since they are flexible, it's very easy to break a solder joint where the strip connects to the wires. I had to redo a strip because if that.

CJ18 Posted November 1, 2012 Author Report Posted November 1, 2012 Thanks guys. Glad yall like it so far. Im probably just going to scrap the lights in the plexi instead of trying to figure out what happened. The glass is siliconed and bolted in place and is not coming out any time soon for m to check the strips. I am going to try and get the batteries and relay panel installed in front of the wall today. Yall really have no idea how much of a relief it is to have that loading wall installed. I do have some bracing to build for the loading wall, but that can be done at any time.
stroupe79 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 looks amazing....hope you get the lights worked out cause they set it off... the doors look crazy too, looking forward to seeing it all come together! http://www.stevemead...cherokee-build/ 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Alpine CDE-hd148bt Alpine PKG-RSE2 PRV Audio (4) 6MB200 front/rear doors PRV Audio (4) TW350Ti dash/rear doors Kicker KX350.4 Obsidian Audio (1) 18 D4 v2 revamp (2) Stereo Integrity HT 18d2DC Audio 1.2k5.25ft^3 tuned @34hz revamp Infinite Baffle Cpillar AudioTechnix 60mil deadenerKnuKonceptz & SkyHigh wire (complete setup)

baron_of_bass Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 Absolutelyyyy love that white It is my favorite also. I third that!! Good stuff cj. Glad you keep it real and tell us what goes wrong as well. Keep up the good work! Team Bass-Hz
CJ18 Posted November 1, 2012 Author Report Posted November 1, 2012 It's all part of the build. No reason to not tell y'all. I think I know what happened. The plexi fits very tight and I probably pinched the wires and exposed the actual wire and they shorted out on each other. Live and learn I guess. Not a huge deal. The lights won't be on much anyway. I'm not going to show it at night very much if any. Just did them because I wanted to.
