Re: Military Blazer Build

I sprayed paint on the box, and left a masked off strip at the bottom. The plan is to wire everything from the bottom, and then weld in the bottom panel and touch up the paint at the end.

Here's some pics from wiring day. I made a spreadsheet showing all the needed connections and copied it to my tablet, grabbed some cold beverages and the soldering iron, and went to work.

Here's everything wired up. Intercom, headset jacks, seat heaters, switches, USB chargers, and LED lights for inside the box.

This milspec D38999 connector allows the box and all components to be removed from the truck. There's 37 circuits that connect to various hardware outside the box, and this connector packages everything in a compact and waterproof plug.
