So a few upgrades and additions I've made over the last few months...

First, added a Blue Sea Fuse Block for accessories!
(http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn186/Motorpig77/Truck%20Build/IMG_20150925_193111035_zpszwmryymv.jpg) (http://s304.photobucket.com/user/Motorpig77/media/Truck%20Build/IMG_20150925_193111035_zpszwmryymv.jpg.html)

Then wired in this 12 volt plug to the bed of the truck, passenger side, near the tail gate

Now that I have power, I needed refrigeration!!! ARB 50qt fridge with "custom" mounting hardware! :)
