The one I bought when I did this is no longer available. a.co/d/5RSHbfc you should be able to buy a 20” bar of your choice and have a similar installation process.

@@alexandriarodrigues8165 I always test my connections before I button it up, sometimes if the light setting is too low on LED it could blink. Try higher setting and if still blinking check your wiring again. Others may have more info to offer.

From my understanding and research, the wiring was switched. So when the Mercedes system has a message to you it is at a louder volume to be louder than what is coming through the system, but because it was switched at the factory the music is loud and bottoming out the cheap speaker making it sound horrible. Switching the wires makes it the way it was designed. It sounds better but the system still could use an upgrade. New speakers would be ideal along with this basic fix.

​@@AaronRobertson Aaron, thanks for your reply. I have a 2013 Sprinter 3500 with a Stinger Heigh10 head unit. Question: Why not just swap the plastic plug sides? I am sorry, I did not understand which wires you are switching, it looks like you are pulling the Gry/Wht from the black plastic connector and putting it in the the white connector. Then, pulling the GRN/WHT wire from the White connector and putting it into the Black plastic connector? I thought the double wire was an in/out bridge so the door speakers are all playing the same as the center dash speaker? I also have rear speakers in my overhead because this system is in a Leisure Travel Van Unity RV. The sound system is not very good for such a big vehicle. I had a VW Vanagon with an under powered stereo/speaker system. I added a Rockford Fosgate subwoofer amplifier (placed anywhere in the vehicle) that gave the sound I was looking for. ruclips.net/video/cBwuLUL2g9A/видео.html Thanks again for your video. If I have what you are saying correct I will try it.

@ so the reason the wires swapped the plastic pieces was because they are of different sizes. Not sure if it was the same for a 2013. I too had an 84 Westfalen and also was gutless. My second campervan was a pleasure way traverse. Same layout as the west y but on the eco online chassis. Loved it, but this time wife really wanted a bathroom.

@ I like that speaker. Been watching a lot of videos on custom sound systems. Not sure what to do. Want to get upgraded suspension, long range tank first.

@@AaronRobertson OMG. Same situation. I put $80k into my '89 Vanagon with a STI Subaru motor to fix the "Gutless" condition ( I had 4 of different models Multi, Full Camper, Weekender and ended up with the full camper) It was to be my retirement van to drive across the USA and Canada. I had Recaro seats, new paint job from Ceasar @California Westy's, working AC etc. Then my wife says, I don't share your retirement plans......so, I could travel alone or buy something bigger with a shower and toilet. We were renting 40' Diesel pushers and loved some things about the luxury travel but did not like the parking or access into shopping centers etc. We found the Leisure Travel Van Class B+ with a porcelain toilet and separate shower, it was the minimum acceptable for her, meaning the shit, shower & brush your teeth all in one spot bathroom did not cut it!. I have rebuilt just about everything on this 2013 rv and love it. No she wants slide-outs and bunk over the cab with two more beds to bring more people. I said maybe if it gives me all the more modern controls like adaptive cruise control, lithium batteries and auto levelers etc. I will try your wiring when I replace my speaker and see if it makes a difference. The Rockford Fosgate amp/sub really worked well for me as it is smaller, hides anywhere and has great sound. Cost is lower than installing other sub woofers in the cabinets. I bought it online during a sale and had a stereo shop wire it up for $50. Deal!

@@crimson20ful it is a 4’x8’ sheet of OSB plywood

@@crimson20ful and thank for the compliment. Appreciate it.

I do not believe so. It is the only connecting piece. There are no other extensions. Also means you can’t hang it lower from a high ceiling.

Yes. You can replace a pendant light. It only needs power. the operations are controlled with the remote.

It is a warm light. Not sure the k scale but maybe on the box.

If you mean the metal frame of the original framework, it does. The 2x2 attaches to it as it is easier to screw in the polycarbonate panels.

@@dianemorris3536 it was so good! Can’t wait for my apple trees to get bigger.

Hard for me to say for sure but sounds like how mine was set up. Switch for light and switch for fan. But this fan only needs power and you control everything with the remote. So highly likely same situation as mine. If unsure definitely talk to a certified electrician.

Nope, but getting closer!

@@Aviation-Dude315 good guess but different state :)

Thanks Marcus. Much appreciated!

Hmm hard to say with out being there. I normally test it before I completely finish the install to ensure it works. Even if you have power going to it, you still need to use the remote to initially power it on. And you need to ensure the battery is connected, usually a clear plastic you remove.

@@sudhirvannadil6362 thanks Sudir!

Cheap screws from China probably.

Haha you caught that. I’ll show my wife.

Indeed it does so long as it was on when your light switch was turned off. So if you had the fan light on and used your switch to turn it off, the next time you used your light switch to turn it on you would hear the beep. So anytime it is powered on.

@@burundisledge2373 no bulbs, integrated LED lighting

@@AaronRobertson are they changeable? I want to install Govee lights

@@burundisledge2373 good question. I never looked to change them. Not sure how easy it would be to remove the cover to expose and see the connection. I guess if you are handy enough you may be able to swap them out.

Not changeable, but they should last for longer than the owner

I think it depends on the slope of your ceiling. The hanging portion fits into a ball type socket so it will hang straight down. But not sure it is long enough shaft for a steep slope.

Remember the shaft cannot be any longer as the wire harness has a set length! So if you want let’s say a foot to two foot shaft in order to lower the fan you would need make an extended wiring harness so you can run the wires down the longer harness. I suppose it could work. Just cut and splice a wire extension. Sry just being nosy as I am planning on buying this fan. Just saw it at Costco today it was for $149.99

@@BigOHavingFun no that’s great. Good info to share. Usually fan kits have extension for vaulted ceilings but this one didn’t.

@@ntt2232 super glad it helped you out. The whole reason I do these is in hopes it will help someone.

@@Olen-e7m thank you!

Good eye! You paddle there?

@@PaulWodarczyk I hit studs. Super solid, it was solid just getting into the light box. The prevyfan was only attached to the box and was fine as well.

@@AaronRobertson I didn't hit any studs, but it solid with just the 2 light box bolts.

@@AaronRobertson I didn't hit studs, but it is pretty solid with the 2 bolts from the light box.

What is the color temperature of the LED - is it 3500K or 4000K?

@@RitmoProductions it wasn’t in the book or Costco.com so I looked it up on ártika.com (mfg website) and they stated 3000k

@@reelchef67 thanks for adding that. I need to look on a map and see what they call it.

@@AaronRobertson Then Hop in your traverse and go there in person as it looks beautiful

@@reelchef67 hitting this place again on Saturday!

@@AaronRobertson That would be a great spot for a remote control jetboat like the "thrasher" . I was just cleaning my traverse camper van today in prep for a trip. Have fun

@@reelchef67 I actually printed an RC jet boat. The M-Jet. Out of all the vehicles I have owned I miss my Traverse the most. But we recently got a newer camper van. Wife wanted a dedicated shower/toilet area. Good idea for the jet boat on that creek. I have to finish some backyard projects but I need to jump on getting the boat built. But also want to take the camper van out.

@@montana4069 wow thanks. Totally appreciate the compliment.

@@shawnrichardson118 thank you. I appreciate that.

Glad you enjoyed it.

@@hsiaowanglin9782 thank you, so stream is more temporary it sounds like.

@@rangerdad11 ah, interesting. Thanks!

@@sudhirvannadil6362 thanks Sudhir, got some interesting responses.

@@MartinGonzalez-n7q haha, good ol BnB. Did you see the Saturday Night skit with them?

@@AaronRobertson No ? I Missed That Episode

@@MartinGonzalez-n7q look it up. Super funny. I saw it here on YT.

@@randyrobertson8742 nope. Regular flow I suppose

@@SilveiraNeto thanks. Hope you found it helpful

@@AaronRobertson yes! I bought two and I was able to assemble them quickly using this video.

@@SilveiraNeto awesome. Glad it helped. I bought two more and referred back to it myself. Haha.

Great video, by the way!!!

Thanks. And sorry, inflation sucks.

So annoying. I hate inflation!

@@AaronRobertson that's crazy how the price jumped $140 within a short time.

@@carltonboram8050 and they say inflation was only 9%

Glad not at that time.

My camera was ready!

Not sure. Was constantly dripping and very wet.

HUGE! Size of a VW bug.

Glad you liked it!

That’s exactly what I was thinking.

We were keeping an eye on it. I’ve turned back some hikes for that reason.

It is smart thinking especially in slot canyons. I’ve turned back before.

Batgirl?

Thanks a fricking lot 😜

Glad you liked it!

@@DIVINGSTRONGER eeeennnnnnhhhhhhh...I heard about that ~ they made it into a movie (I never saw it) ~ what a way to remember a hiking trip by, eh? What a choice to have to make ~ cut your arm off or dehydrate to death. Uuunnhhh...just the thought of it ~ goodness gracious!! 😳😬😰😱

@@CarolsCurrentObsession desperate times called for desperate measures. Yeah, they made it into a movie. You should watch it in your downtime. It was kind of intense if you like that type of vibe. But what you captured is very beautiful definitely looking forward to the hiking in the future.thank you for sharing

Yup, saw that movie. Was more worried in other dry overhang areas.

I guess I was lucky to have running water.

It is a good movie.

That would have been a sight to see.

Glad you enjoyed

Moab is AWESOME!! I took my boys several times!! The cool thing was, being rich or not, no issue. Plenty to do that costs little or nothing.

@@JaneJones-uh5le it's so true! Moab is amazing that way ~ my husband and I have taken our family down to Moab several times as well, and it's so wildly beautiful, and all it costs is gas and food ~ you can hike, explore, even drive and explore (which is what we did this last time, because I'm in a wheelchair now) but even then, the driving tour is phenomenal!

Glad you enjoyed!

Moab is amazing. Two national parks virtually across the street. Great place.

Glad you liked it.

@@AaronRobertson Thank you

Glad you enjoyed it.
