Its a bracket from Midland USA for the ghost antenna.

Demello Offroad, Corona, CA.

Thank you sir! You should see it now! Lol. Added a supercharger to her and some other fun items. 😉

I will find out for ya buddy! Will be home tomorrow. Feel free to contact me at andersonoverland@gmail.com

I’m not sure about that. You could just find a video about installing LED pod lights and just put them on a switch?

I just connected a multi-tester to each wire to figure out which one changes voltage and fades the circuit out after a few seconds. I can’t remember which one it was honestly.

@@AndersonOverland I'm sure it's the blue one but I've seen in forums that some have taken the ground wire and attached it to the brown/ tan wire and it still doesn't make the light go off so I'm a bit stumped. I installed an inline fuse so I just took the fuse out for now until I find a solution.

@@lijianli Have you tried a multi-tester to check circuit timeout?

@@AndersonOverland yes, and it's a constant on.. doesn't go out... the footwell lights go out connected to the oem footwell lights but not the running board lights.

@@lijianli hmmmm weird. Maybe the type of led?

I know I could get two of these side by side, but not sure if the 68’s will. They are cheap enough to give it a shot. You could always take them back. Good luck!

Yeah! Just been very busy. About to start a bi-weekly podcast. Keep checking @andersonoverland on instagram and facebook for more info!

Nope! Not at all!

They are the stock press-in splash guard clips from toyota. Just search “stock tundra splash guard clips” on amazon.

Thank you! You can find them on amazon.com - search “Magnetic Mic”.

@@AndersonOverland thank you.

Yeah understood. I actually put it up there for easier access for USB power. I think I’m gonna hide it inside my 4runner though. Just a little more out of the way.

I just went to a fuse block through the firewall and put the antenna wire up the a-post and through a hole in the roof to my mount on my rack.

It has a super solid mount and there is a hole at the top for a small padlock which keeps it on.

Dude that switch idea is badass! I should have done that too! Right on!

@@AndersonOverland you still can. Best match I could find was a 10 amp, couldn't find 7.5, should be fine though

@@AndersonOverland it worked 😎

@@Nocturnal160 Nice!! Send me a video! andersonoverland@gmail.com

They have been great!! Still have all of them! The only thing I’ve noticed is that they deform when strapped down over about 100 degrees.

We use an awesome set of bungees from @theperfectbungee (www.theperfectbungee.com)

That is a bracket mount made by our partner “ICS Fabrication”. You can find them here: www.ics-fab.com

No it should be fine. They should provide you with the relays needed for proper voltage.

@@AndersonOverland Thanks for the quick reply. I will give you an update when I get them installed. Once again thanks 👍

@@richmurphy5647 Sounds great! Looking forward to it!

@@AndersonOverland Just installed my D-XL Pros today, they are awesome!! Wish I could post my pic.

@@richmurphy5647 Nice!!! Can’t wait to see them!

It came with mounts.

BrianMC 1975 I don’t think so using that circuit no.

There is a way to have the courtesy lights and a way to have them switchable . I'm about to do it tomorrow. Run an additional ground wire spliced into the splice you did for the floor light ground, and run it to the chassis somewhere (easy to find). The key is, you need to this additional ground through a circuit breaker. Keep the circuit on, lights on demand. Break the circuit, lights will only come on with the courtesy/door ajar etc.

The circuit breaker worked

randy cutrara Really? They are out of business.

I don't think they're out of business. I just received an order from them the other day (12-23-20)

Antonio Bautista Thx bro!

robby dtox Robby, thx for the question! I’m not sure about that, but I’d be happy to find out for ya!

robby dtox From my rep - The MXT115 is run on a FRS/GMRS frequency. Therefore it will only communicate with GMRS/FRS frequencies!

@@AndersonOverland i just did a test the little antenna works good 13mile plus hills and buildings i dont think i need an upgrade

robby dtox Sweet!! Glad you dig it!! Let me know if you have any more questions!

@@AndersonOverland i was vert suprised how well it worked yes iam glad thank you for the quick response...

Boomstick _0311 No. Just unscrewed it from the antenna assembly. I wish it was a bit easier and smaller for running the wire.

@@AndersonOverland I easily got my license by going to fcc.gov < First you must apply for a FRN (Federal Registration Number). You MUST give the FCC your Social Security Number as part of this process. After you apply for and receive your FRN you will also be assigned a password which will either be mailed or emailed to you separately for security purposes. After you have this you can get on the FCC WEBSITE and scroll down to ULS (Universal Licensing System). Click on that and look for APPLY FOR NEW LICENSE (or something similar). The radio service code for GMRS is ZA. Click on that, answer the questions and begin the application process. At the end you can pay with a credit card and SUBMIT. Within a few days the FCC will issue you your new license and send you a temporary 30 day link so that you can print out a hard copy for your records. Oh yeah, the license is only $7 per year for a ten year license, that's $70 total. Currently the FCC is discussing lowering the cost to only $50 for ten years. If you don't get your license and you ever do get caught it's a $10,000 fine and forfeiture of your equipment. Furthermore, if you think you might be interested in operating through a repeater someday you WILL need a valid callsign. Otherwise, you will be shunned by the legitimate users. Whenever I talk to someone, the first thing that I do is to ask for a callsign. Anyone can search the FCC license database to check for validity. Please, get your license and encourage your friends to do the same because GMRS is different from CB radio. I hope this is helpful. 👍

Yes its a licensed frequency. Read the comment from David above.

GMRS. $70 for 10 years

Kevin Willis “Magnetic Mic”! They are AWESOME!

Anderson Overland unable to find any site or entry for a Kevin Willis Magnetic Mic. There are lots of posts for a brand called Magnetic Mic by Innovative Products inTN. Is this the same product ?

@@Brumintx Magnetic Mic www.amazon.com/dp/B0153KY2GY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_OtiIFbRGZDQTA

Erik Silfven We’re stoked that they finally made this modification for the new models!!

@@AndersonOverland after hearing about your horror story, I'm glad they made the upgrade too. Next time I have it open, I will try to remember to take some photos to show you.

Phillip Buslon That I’m not sure of buddy. Maybe 2/3 of it before it starts to slow down a bit from what I remember.

I have the older version and it easily puts out 3/4 of the tank before I really notice a pressure loss. You can pump back up with a cap they sell on their site, a bike tire pump, or a mobile air compressor like I have for airing up tires if out on the trails. They are nice to have. Mine has a defect in the seem. Only recently started weeping after having it for ~2 years. Considering buying another. I'm out of warranty. Tried to repair, but the repair isn't fully watertight and worried with it being under pressure. Would definitely buy again. Mounted to the bed rail under my tonneau cover of my Tacoma. Easy for tailgating and camping. I've also washed off a friend's windshield when he parked beneath a flowering tree and all the petals stuck to his glass. Got some funny looks while in the parking lot doing so. I just smile and know it looks odd, but it's so convenient.

MotoMadman You bet!!

Fkakapain Well bummer man! That sucks! I’m thinking that its that bluetooth module. Did you try to hookup a multi-tester to the circuit to insure the voltage drops out and fades in? Try that first. If you get 12v fading in on courtesy circuit activation and 12v fade to 0 upon the timer timing out after the courtesy circuit is off, then you’ll know if its the bluetooth module. If it is, just wire up your rock lights direct to the courtesy circuit and you should be all good!

Anderson Overland - I don’t know much about dc power and especially how it works on cars . But the Bluetooth module and lights works perfectly if I connect it straight to the battery. I even Tried reconnecting the lil light to the circuit with the module attached. I pig tailed the light back into the circuit . Still wouldn’t turn off . I thought maybe the lights didn’t turn off because the circuit was tampered with. Still didn’t work . So I gave up and cut the positive wire going to the Module . .leaving the small light attached, dome Lights still wouldn’t turn off . Not until I remove the positive and common From the module leaving the dome light connected . Everything went back to normal . Tomorrow I’m going to try to attached the common to the frame and instead of the common on the lil light . And only connect the positive to the courtesy/dome light positives circuit . I’ll let you know if I have any luck .

Fkakapain Cool! I’m sure its something simple! Let me know what you find out!

Anderson Overland Did you find a fix ? I’m in the same boat except I did everything just like your video . With the exception of leaving the tiny footwell light . The crazy thing is my footwell and interior lights fade in and out , but the rock lights stay on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Itsme B No way! Really? Thats awesome!!

@@AndersonOverland yup, ill hopefully be posting a video this weekend or next showing it.

Itsme B Sweet! Can’t wait to see what they did!

I just ordered the tent, would like to see this as well. Thanks!

I am waiting for a new rain fly to come in before I do a video, I'll post a link to it when I can
