The capacitor bleeds off its power within a minute of being disconnected from power supply. Unhook battery, touch cables together and it will drain the system of all power.

I am a olympus rep if you want to order or have any questions let me know!
I'm looking for a flood light to fit on my Or-fab bumper. Max 6" wide and 3" tall. There are two light tabs as shown in the picture. Also it would be great if Olympus could tell you what degree spot or flood pattern, like 60° for flood and 20° for spot. And the dimensions of the lights

In my 1996 XJ the seats from a ZJ bolted onto the stock sliders. No modifications. Manual seats.

maybe that'll work for you. apparently it's bolt in for the fronts. little more involved for the rear.

The dealer might have them as well. Or you can make them pretty easy.

I figured the dealer was an option. I should just make them but I have some time restraints.

1" flat stock. Drill some holes, weld some nuts. Easy peasy.
