[QUOTE="Backwoods, post: 1080630, member: 9329"] No voltage step-down needed. There was an inline fuse in my direct wire (from blend mount) that could probably be removed, but I just left it in there. Yes - the bolt is the one right behind the red wire. Not a great shot but if you look close you will see the black wire connection coming in from the left of the bolt. It looks like it should be an easy thing to reach, but it's back from the fuse box and you are already cramped in there under the glove box trying to reach the damn thing. The bolt is aluminum, so it's really light. I'd recommend putting something underneath it when you are loosening it. If it drops, it's gone forever. Good luck with the install. It's fairly simple once you get it started. The exterior accessory installs should be much easier in this raptor since you can go directly to the power under the hood and won't have to mess with the pass through wires. Haven't done anything there yet, but eagerly awaiting all the lighting mount options. [/QUOTE]
