Nice. :thumbup:

PhullD, if you haven't already you should start a Rig thread in the members garage area. It's nice to see the build up all in one place.

You should have some unused fuse spots in your interior fuse panel if your frontier is anything like my X. I even tested them and found a couple that were constant power which was nice for my camera. If not there are a couple big ones you can piggy back on with those fuse taps.

Oh good. Maybe in a few years they will be mine. When you need new ones of course and sell them before they are in too bad condition. Image

Installed Class 5 hitch.

Ordered Wednesday morning from Hitch Depot Canada on amazon.ca, arrived Thursday, and installed Thursday night. Just over 36 hours from the website to on the truck, suitably impressed. This is the second large item I've ordered from Hitch Depot Canada on amazon.ca that has arrived next day.
