i put a led light in my 2012 chrysler 200 limited and its flickering ..the led that i put is farhen h11 with capacitor ....what shlould i do sir thanks

Do you foresee any bowing occurring in the wooden cross supports over time, given the weight of both kayaks? Do you think support underneath would be needed?

Hey how are you. I have a question I had recently bought a kayak and I just bought the NRS 12 ft cam strap I noticed that my cam straps. I noticed that your cam straps are wider and mine is a little bit thinner. How do you get the NRS cam strap that you have? Because I got the heavy duty version

Fantastic build! Simple and effective.

Very informative. Thank you.

Thank you for a great idea. Actually, to be simpler, you really don't need the slide-out inner pipe, only using the 2 inch (or maybe next larger size) (which is stronger than 1.5 inch). Cut it long enough to stick out far enough from the side of the car to support the kayak like you did. Strap the pipe to the car rack like you did, sticking out. Then the pipe is strong and won't move. Load the kayak like you did and when done, remove the straps and the temporary loading pipe and place it in the car or strap it to the rack running along the length of the kayak. A number of years ago I was loading my somewhat heavy kayak on top of my Subaru Outback and initially lifted the entire kayak up too fast (IDIOT!!!!), not realizing that I tore my left shoulder rotator cuff, but didn't know for a week or so, then experiencing horrible pain one night for a day or so (thinking I had pulled a muscle), but it did not get better. Couldn't move my arm. Thought I might be having heart problems. Then eventually passed out from the pain and made a rush trip to the emergency room. Ended up having surgery and months of recovery before using my left arm for lifting again. What a pain in the ass (arm) that was. Now considering doing the kayak thing again, so, I like your simpler method. Thank you! 😀

Instead of looping around the J rack can I loop over the roof rack and over the kayak? Like the first one Kaye the kayak flat. For the quick straps can I put them on the side of the hood not the front?

What’s the difference between the icar pro WiFi and the icar pro Bluetooth? It’s also my understanding that I won’t need the cables since I’m going do this for my 2016 jeep compass. I can directly plug this in without the by pass.

Pete, thanks for the video. What width of cam straps do you recommend. NRS come in several widths. Thanks

What is the roof rack you use?

So I'm kindof on the spectrum, I'm a very physical learner & I benefit from great detail & communication. I appreciate that you did all the steps, I wouldve appreciated you following the motions as exact as if youd been setting up for a real kayaking experience because I own an Acura MDX with different racks, but I own accountability that its my responsibility to watch multiple videos for as much detail as I can absorb. * I REALLY appreciate that you left the blooper of you tossing the strap against the wind & cursed! That showed REAL & not some perfect rehearsed "education" & that stuff matters to me. I looked up the straps you used, & me personally to keep threads from fraying - I would just use a lighter along the edges just so, to melt them togsther gently & keep from fraying in the wind. I am grateful you created this video, thank you👍

I have a question about the junction box you have there. Is the box secured through the mounting plate and then into the sheathing only or is there something else behind?

150 $ saved and thousands for physio.Thx a milion pal for this idea.

Just wanted to drop a think you. I needed an idea for how to convert my 5x8 utility trailer to haul my kayaks on a family vacation. I already had the J Hooks, but wasnt crazy about hauling the kayaks on the roof for hundreds of miles each way. I used your video as the basis of my trailer configuration, and it worked great. I went ahead and used your initial idea for the rear gate, anchoring it down with 3/8 carriage bolts through a 4*4. So thanks again.

This is cool. Thank you for the ideas. I just bought a utility trailer and am planning on doing this for canoes. I was told the railings were not weight bearing (I know the kayaks are light) so I'm not sure this'll work for me.

Well done. I’m giving you all of the credit on this one. I’m going to copy this exact layout and will be looking forward to hauling my kayaks so much easier. Thanks for posting this!

More than $200 for rack straps?

Stillson pipe wrench will do lol

Thank you Mr pete

Nice & effective solution 😊

Waay over designed !

Good idea. I would add a piece of wood (pine) through centre to stop bowing, or a hinged vertical broomstick which attached from end of pipe to ground. A fibreglass tent "stick" would be ok. In hot weather the plastic gets soft.

Excellent video Pete!

There was no flickering demonstrated (looked like a ceiling fan in front of his garage light) and then no follow up of the "flickering" going away after the install...

I have lasfit on my 2020 GTI and have had them for 4 years and still going strong.

I saw in the video that the jeep patriot is supported on the jscan app, but do you know if they all have the same options under the adaptations tab on the app? I want to try this but i dont know if it would be a waste of time

Easier would be to rent a kajak

I love it

Thank you for your video. I used to scuba dive and find all kinds of stuff in the local lakes. Now that I'm 70 I'm not quite as enthusiastic about donning all that gear. Magnet fishing should help satisfy the urge for discovery.

When you work in construction or go to the gym lifting heavy stuff all the time you don't need a PVC pipe to help you, which is kind of Handy for someone is not that strong.😅

Excellent vid Pete - Hadn't had to mess with my exposed light fixtures in nearly 20 yrs, but this really helped! BTW that is the coolest mini-level I've ever seen; mine is a cheapo white plastic job. I was thinking I'll need mine for the new fixtures I bought, glad to see you used one.

My question is, what do I need to do this with my 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 Custom Trail Boss. I have the Lasfit lights installed for by my high and low beams and my low beams will turn on just fine but then will turn off and then back on. Sometimes only one comes back on. Lasfit sent me adapters to possible help with the issue but the way they want me to install them is kind of shady. If I can do it through adaptations that would be a big help. However, I do not know which app would work.

I was thinking of something similar after watching a different video of a guy that loaded a much larger boat. Seems I was on the right track. This is a much cleaner design than I had. Thank you 👍😎

Wow great job thanks you very much

Not all unboxing videos are interesting. You did a great job on this one. Thank you.

Thanks for the idea. Always looking for easier way to do things but my roof rack different so will have to investigate it

Think you mean accept the low current needs of led's as the voltage is allway's 12 volts.

best video ive ever seen on youtube

If I can't legally have good window tint you shouldn't have your dumbass headlights that causes accidents.

Nice idea. But instead of pressing on plugs you could glue the side you don't use, then put a female threaded clean out coupler and close it up with a male threaded coupler plug.

What would I need for a 2016 jeep compass? Bought some leds from Amazon and they flicker. What would I need

How did you mount the non folding j hooks? Are they made to be bolted? Everything i see is made to clamp. Do you have a link to these?

Cool idea. I might make this for myself.

What do those nuts tastes like?

Excellent video -- Thanks

I did it! Very well explained, thanks!

Does this work for 2005 grand cherokee laredo

Great idea. What I do is lift my boat at one end then get underneath and balance it on my head like an African woman. Then I turn towards the car getting one side of the boat on. At this point I usually swear about something like a strap in my way or something from the boat hitting me in the face. Then i work my way to the back of the boat and put it on the car. Then I stop for a few seconds and curse kayaking. Then strap it up and go.

One thing to note about using scrapers to finish your stock vs. sandpaper. I heard Mitch Yates speak and he says a scraped stock will take stain better than a sanded stock. I'll be looking into the versa vise, looks like a nice setup.
