Video

Thank you. This was one of my first few videos and still trying to figure it all out. I had no idea ads were even playing on my videos until now. Lol. Hopefully you will enjoy the future videos as I get better gear and more knowledge. Thank you for your feed back.

I guess it depends on what you're using the car for. We are climbing over rocks, so I like the idea that the mud flaps will fold rather than break. Also, the reason I didn't go with Rally Armor as they are to stiff. I feel the splash guards would have smashed when hitting a rock. Also, they cover the side of the car better from the road grim. Each has their own preference.

The instructions are "ok", but it is a simple product to wire up. Follow my video as your car should be the same as mine, 24 Outback Wilderness. Basically you wire the big wire (either one) from the battery to the breaker, from breaker to the (+) side of the module. Wire the (-) side of the module to a ground or the (-) on the battery. The small wire can be wired to a constant 12volt source like I did (this lets you be able to turn the on anytime but also be warned as if accidently turned on it could run your battery down) or to a 12volt ignition source (this will only be powered when the car is turned on). This wire should be fuse, but they do include the fuse in the box, you could go straight to the battery but you would want to purchase an inline fuse for that. The only other thing to do is wire up your item you want to control so just run positive (+) wire (probably red but not always) to the (+) side on the module and the negative (-) wire (probably black but not always) to the negative terminal on the module. The only other thing to know it the module goes from 10amp to 30amp. So you will need to see what item you are hooking up requires how many amps. Pretty simple, just read the instrutions andfollow the video and I think you will be fine. The layout for the 2020-2024 outback is the same, the curcuits might be a little different from WIlderness to Premium but that is about it. Also follow the channel as I am building mine and 99% of everything that fits my car will also fit yours. I have a link in the discrption (affiliate link) for the Switch panel. Also check out Rival4X4 for your skid plates, I get nothing from them but I love the plates and they also have hood shocks that i will be installing and reviewing shortly, no more hood prop rod.

@@SubaruColorado thank you. You earned a sub man.

@@aaronnyl7429 thank you

I don't remember but it is in the instructions. I will try to get you that info tonight.

The small "ACC" wire is required to either go to an ignition wire or constant 12v. You could either tap into the fuse box or just go to the battery but remember to put a fuse inline if you go to the battery. I prefer the constant 12v so I can turn them on from a distance without needing to get in the car.

I thought that was the case but didn't want to assume. Also, did you use any loctite on the nuts to ensure they didn't come loose? I appreciate your response.@@SubaruColorado

You're welcome.

Mayello on Amazon. I have a review of those, and also I have a link to them on the video. So far I like them for the price. czcams.com/video/GYCfMuNb59c/video.htmlsi=dBSVnIbCy4CCc5KA

I know right. Why spend thousands on mods to go faster when you can just speed up the video. Lol

You will be very happy with it. Works amazing.

Question! So you have yours install on an always hot fuse so you can turn lights on, even when the car is off/not running and I know that is not using any power while nothing is on but technically there is a receiver that’s going to be waiting for a signal from the remote. Now the question is do you think if I leave my car for a couple weeks parked for example. Will the battery die from the receiver always being “on” waiting for that signal?

These have been amazing so far.

Nobody is hacking your lights man. Come on . Lol

I am very happy with mine. I have about 6 weeks with it so far. I might get a 2nd one for the wife's car just so I don't have to drill the firewall

Also the link is in the description

Glad you liked it!

Thanks!

You talking about the $500 switch I see on Amazon?

The Garmin one does look nice. Does it have a fuse or breaker before it just in case? I did not see it listed that it did, so don't forget to order and add one if not.

I agree. Also the switches can be programmed super easy to work with lights to be constant on/off while also having other buttons programmed to work with the horn and only work while pushed.

It is wireless. There is a usb-c that can charge it up and then it is good for a long while. I haven't off-roaded since the winter is here but the bit we have used the lights I have only charged it when I first pulled it out of the box and still going strong on that 1 charge.

I ran a Trigger Six-Shooter wireless hardwired to my battery for 3 years without an issue. I think this would be a similar case. I'm planning on running mine to a always-on circuit, as I like the option to hit all the lights when the car isn't on, like when my housemate arrives home at 2am and is walking up the driveway. Opportunities for hilarity abound.

I have not had any issues since installed. I would guess the receiver probably uses very little power, but if let not driven for a long period of time i am sure it would drain it. Long time would be well over a month. I have had it sat for 4 day (long weekend where we drove the wife's car or stayed home) with not issues at all.

Thank you Stephanie. I have been really happy with this so far. I also liked the Mayello ditch lights, not bad for around $30 a set. I will look up the 2 lights you suggested.

I am glad I could help. We are very happy with it so far. Plan to fill all the spots by summer. You can wire the "acc" wire to either constant 12v or ignition 12v. I went with constant 12v.

Yeah, I think a mic is for sure on the list to get. I will probably reshoot this video down the road.

Thank you. I can look up the exact channel on my laptop, but it was from CZcams. It was a 4ish minute music, and then I edited it together to flow for the whole 15 minutes.

Thank you.

That must have been one bumpy ride with an Accord.

@@SubaruColorado Bumpy in any vehicle, even an overrated Subaru.

@@Sazzbinn Own a subrau before you give it a rating

No thanks. Vehicle of the left. I'm not a lefty, the communist party.

Not much, maybe 1/2 inch, but I will take the slight lose for the protection they give.

I did look at the oem one but they didn't cover as much. If it was a daily driver then I probably would have went that way but these are 1/4 thick and have taken a beating as we offroad it.

Nothing so far as the front skid has rubber "bumpers that i think helps it. We have heard a few impacts from rocks and whatnot, but no damage so far. I am super happy with them. I think my only complaint is that they don't make the rear diff nor fuel skids.

@@SubaruColorado great I did my install but did a stupid mistake on one of the tabs with long wire and snap on of them 😭😭 so im stuck and msg Rival if they can send me one.
