That was really helpful and well done. One thing I found useful is to run a loop that dips below the insertion point before going through the grommet. That way, any water that runs down the wire ends up being directed below the insertion point rather than run down the wire through the grommet.

Great walkthrough. That 4Runner is cleaner than the day I picked mine up from the dealer!

Instead of hacking up the grommet in the engine compartment all you have to do is move over to the grommet closer to the fender and snip off the little rubber cone projection. It opens up a factory hole that will seal itself around the wire.

When I ran the cord for my Auxbeam I just cut a slit in the grommet and fed it through. What’s wrong with that? It still seals up around it.

Great video. Helped me figure out how to route to that same area. Like MikeC said that little unused grommet is made for diy additions. Also, I would loom any wires with corrugated or nylon weave split loom. Last thing, that 10Ga (35-40A) is probably over kill for two cig lighter outlets (10A each).

Nice job, thanks. Do you have 2 batteries? if so, do you have a video of that install? And how long can you refrigerator run before the batteries disconnect from low voltage ?

There’s a relay you can pick up at O Riley’s auto that will allow you to have power to all outlets all the time. I like though that your setup is more fail proof… if I leave my fridge plugged in for days, I’d have a dead battery for sure!

Great video. Hi how well has the gauge wire you used holding up. I am planning to run a line to the back for rear cargo area and trying to see what gage will be adequate. Thanks

Very well done video, man. Bad-ass setup. I really liked how you showed the whole wire run process including removing all the panels. That was very brave of you to do on video 😂, but it helps others (like me) learn what to watch out for!!! I am actually running an AC outlet to the FRONT of the car from the back and doing an in-motion harness on the inverter, so this video showed me just about everything I need to do and answered ALL my questions Any special notes on the door threshold panels? They seem to be very STUCK on there for me. Also, why did you run a separate black wire to the back and not just pickup a chassis ground? Just curious. Again, awesome video!!!

Regarding the threshold panels, some careful prying with a panel removal tool and getting my fingertips under it. Just don’t force it. Regarding the ground, yeah, could have saved myself some cable.

There’s diagrams on the internet that tell you what gauge you need depending on the distance from the battery and how much draw you’ll have.

didnt you just show hooking up to the starter battery ? why not just plug in the 12v socket and use while driving ? or are you adding a second battery and dc dc charger ?

Thank you for the video, it is timely. Is there a way to not add a second panel, and connect constant power to the inverter and 12 volt socket?

Great install video! I have a question in regard to wiring to the switch pro. It is my understanding that any accessories wired to the switch pro only work when the vehicle is running or in accessory mode. How do you achieve the constant power controlled by the switch at the rear when the vehicle is off, but also controlled by the switch pro panel/app when the vehicle is on?

You can configure some or all of the switches on the SP to be always on. The one switch where I control the accessories to the back is on one of the switches that I have so configured.

Did you already have a hole drilled behind the jbl speaker cover? Or is there another access point around the shelf? How long would you estimate this took you?
@theoverlanded

You can access behind the lower part of the JBL speaker cover plate from inside the wheel well once you take the cover off. I had to fish the wire behind the speaker plate since the speaker plate doesn’t come off unless you take apart much more than I wanted to. The job took a couple of hours.

@@theoverlanded Ah got it, I have an open shelf there, with no other openings it seems. Got the wheel well open using your method with the screws, looks like I need to drill a small hole from this point. Thanks for the video, it’s helpful and you had such a clean setup!

@@theoverlanded - For anyone who might have the same setup as me, I ran the power harness to the taillight and then drilled a small light through that cover. I did my best to then wrap it up and zip tie it behind the panel. It’s not as hidden, but that way if I ever decide to sell/remove the setup, I can easily and cheaply replace the cover (no permanent drilling).
