Fan of maize and blue fire hydrants are we?
I used to live right by the big house. Did fellowship there.

Dude. You should post some pics of that frunk light. Looks great.

Those look awesome!

Do you feel the heated seats through the sheepskin?
Do you even need heated seats at this point?

Thanks man I honestly can’t tell when they’re heated. Same for cooling. But I like that they don’t feel hot during the summer or cold during the winter. I have them in my old landcruiser too and they the more than compensate for its mediocre climate control.

How does one clean them?

Just a vacuum with a brush head. If you spill something just use paper towels and water - or shampoo I guess, since it’s animal hair.

Used this shop crane yesterday to remove my rooftop tent and Mars rack! Just 2 of us with this system and saved so much time

Now that’s just not right! Funny but not right! Haha

I removed the front panel of the center console and drilled two small holes to fit small bolts with nuts and washers.

The flashlight would come out if the truck rolled upside down, but it's captive otherwise. I've never even heard it rattle. I found the holder online, it's a good quality 3D print made just for that flashlight.

Did you run the power cord into the center console?
Also...thanks for posting this....I went and bought the same flashlight and mount

I was going to run the USB cable for the wireless charger into the center console but decided to just charge as needed in the large center console compartment because I don't like keeping my flashlights charged to 100%. Plus, I can't find an Olight wireless charge cable with a USB-C plug so I would have to drill a hole large enough for a USB-A plug and use a USB-A to USB-C adapter or splice a USB-C plug onto the wireless charger. If I spliced a USB-C on there, I suppose I could run the cable inside the console and just keep it unplugged until I wanted to charge it.

FYI I just bought a USB-A female to USB-C male cable from Amazon. I ran the cable along the side of the console/seat and either plug in to one of the back ports or into the console.

That would work in my instance, but then I would have twice the length of cable I needed (because the wireless charger is hardwired into the USB-A cable).

I've never spliced a USB cable together (to change it from USB-A to USB-C). This is what would get me the cleanest install without having to drill a USB-A sized hole). Anyone know how tricky it is splicing USB-C to a USB-A cable? It would just be for charging the flashlight, not data.

You could get one of those magnetic usb cables with the interchangeable heads.
No specific recommendation from me but I’m thinking something like this

Different type of charger. The Olight uses this one.
