Where to get some Electrical Stuff
« on: April 23, 2008, 11:19:22 PM »
I need to get some electrical stuff for the jeep.
I need some switches ( black ones with a LED in the end for when it is on, and a Missile switch) and a 12v power interrupter for the winch that is in the very near future. I went to PA and got all the wire and some switches but I don't like them all that much. I went to NAPA and they wanted 20 plus for the ones I liked.
I gust asking to see what other places pepole have had luck with.
Why does your Jeep say Toyota on it?
The obstacle is the path.

AutoValue, or Part Source I have found are decently priced.... anyone else?

if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!

I have found that nice switches arn't cheap. Maybe try looking at some online places, or also try walmart (good price but little selection) and crappy tire.

B&E will have what you need plus some...Fairly resonable for prices as they are an electronics supplier for most electronic needs...

Acklands-Grainger and Gregg's Ditstrubitors have a large selection of stuff. I get most of my stuff there.
