Since the title on this thread is "The Gun Room", I let y'all know what I did to improve mine today... actually over the last few weeks. Let's start with... it's dark outside, and I want to go out to the reloading shop... aka: gun room. If it's a clear nite and has better'n half the moon, no problem, I can get out there without stumblin' over something!
But, life is not all clear nites and full moons. So, along with my tilt steering column I ordered a full light kit... head lights, tail lights, turn signals and horn for my gun cart. Next trick will be backup lites! But, I gotta tell ya, combining an automotive type steering column with a golf cart lighting kit, is far from an easy install. Let's just say that the head & tail lights worked, but the turn signals and 4-way flashers didn't... Oh they lit up, but flash? Not a chance.
Not a flicker, not a dimming, let alone a flash. Well... after getting a bunch of parts and spending the better part of two days testing, testing some more, and finally, last nite getting the flashers to work... then spending the day remaking the wiring harness and getting it all attached to all it's final locations. Had to add a power relay, horn relay and resisters to increase the load for the LED turn signals. Installed a power distribution block, fuses for each circuit and mount it all.
New steering column & wheel:
Wiring up the automotive weatherproof connectors or all circuits:
Distribution/fuse block:
Finished:
been trying to upload this pix for two days... no joy!
Only problem is that it's all hidden by the front cowling. Which has to be completely removed to get to anything except the flashers & fuses.
