^^I see you run a Bestop tire carrier. I had one on my LJ for years until I noticed that it was litterly tearing the sheetmetal at the bottom of the tub and bending the tub where the carrier bolts to the roll bar bracket.
Great pics, where at?

That is why I used the H4 harness for the fog lights. The offroad lights pull to many amps to just wire them up without upgrading the wiring and relays. When you wire them up with a relay, you take the load of the factory fog light switch and wiring.
I am running 90/100 watts headlight bulbs with the aftermarket H4 and 130 watt in the KC's hooked up to the factory fog switch with a relay. Works great.

I first bought the bestop TJ half top and was going to try to mate the top with the bestop tonneau like you. Then after a little research I found out that Rampage makes a half top with a separate tonneau cover in a kit. So I ordered it from Amazon for $180 bucks and it worked great! I'd almost say better than the Bestop. So I returned the Bestop half top and got my $550 back. The Rampage cab cover overlaps perfect with the bestop tonneau. Water and wind proof. I didn't sew the two together, just used the existing metal buttons to join the two together. I also did this because I'm making a bulkhead so the truck can be used as a pickup too. Hope this helps out.

Wow!! I wish I would have known about that Rampage top before I bought my halftop. Would save me from having to cut up the Bestop halftop. I like that the Bestop has the built in sunrider though. If I can sell my Bestop and get my money out of it I'm totally buying that top. Thanks for the reply!
