[BIG DIRTY]

Man I was just about to get out of my car which was parked outside of the Wing House, and of course while I was reaching for my pull disconnect the switch box goes sliding out my lap. I was like in one of those movies when everything slows down and someone is yelling NOOOOOOOO!!! Well I had just two extensions on the switch box for Front and Back, and the box lands upside down depressing the Front and Back toggles up. Well the car bunny hops off the ground, and I can hear some kid go COOOOL!! Man that shit scared the shit out our of me.

 

[hopper_ali]

wow. was it fun though? i woulda said cooool! as well. if only somebody had a videocamera!

 

[lil6yplayboy]

i did the same type of shit but my plaque fell and hit me :uh:

 

[tcvaldez]

that shit used to happen to me all the time. I would bend over to get something out of the glove box and accidently hit the switches and throw that bitch all over the place.

Now every time I make a box I always put a key on the box to turn it off and on. That way, even if the ground is on, and you hit the switch nothing will happen.

Also helps if your driving on the highway and you have your homies with you. You won't have to worry about any accidents (seen this happen with a blazer)

Just my .02

How do you go about adding a switch key?? I always hit my shit on accident.

 

[tcvaldez]

very ez. All you have to do is add the switch on your 24 volt wire.

That will cut off all the power to the switches.

Thanks for the info. Yeah I am doing some Horn drivers across the dash, and we are gonna put the switches between the drivers with a key switch to turn that shit off and on. It is cool to see that I am not the only one that has had this problem.

[BigNasty85Regal]

[CUTLASS BOYZ]

One time I was rollen my Cutty & I had my 10 switch box sitten on the pas. seast I was rollen preety fast when this lady cut me off & I had to slam on my breaks. My Box slid off the seat & landed upside down on the floor & my car went crazy so I slamed on the breaks again & my Cutty started spinning doen 360's out of control in the middle of the innersection I was lucky I didnt tare some shit up But Thats the first time I lost total control of a car. After that I started pullen the QD B-4 I took off but the 10 Box is coming out ASAP & a panel will be going in

 

[Silver]

Panels are the way to go..4 or 5 switch panels :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[BIG DIRTY]

I will post pictures of my swithpanel when I get finished with the install.

 

[Joost....]

or like this, haven`t tried it yet my car doesnt drive at the moment, but i think it will be safer then a box, and it looks goooood :biggrin:

 

[Joker808]

i have a switch panel with 4 switches..then i have the box with the key switch and it sits in the trunk for car dancing

 

[BIG DIRTY]

Shit that is too close for me, I am 6'5", and I need elbow room. I can guarentee that you put those switches by my elbow. My 66 would look like the Radical Dancer: Voodoo :biggrin:

 

[BIG DIRTY]

Damn I just saw the 6 switch chrome plate that Pro Hopper got, think I am gonna go that route.
