This forum has been very helpful. After a year, and a long winter, I finally decided which things to add.
Brake lite: Many adopters seem to use the brake pedal itself to operate the switch, which is not only exposed to the weather, but also the lite comes on with every brake push and is not helpful when using dual brakes for steering. I operate my switch off the parking brake set lever. You can expose this by removing the instrument panel cover (2 10mm bolts and a philips screw above the steering wheel) and removing the steering wheel (easy).
I used a "whisker" switch from Amazon and bent the arm for correct operation. I mounted the switch to the frame member under the steering wheel with 3m all weather double sided tape (working for my dashcams after 5 years).
I placed the light (Blue Sea) where it is unobstructed. Now I know when the parking brake is set.
ROPS lights. I am right handed. I mounted the switch on the right-hand cover plate. I also tapped off the cigarette lighter, I did not see the utility of running all the way to the battery, Fuse is accessible under the removable junk tray. Mounted the relay on driver side of fender.
Above the rops lite switch is the switch to operate my 30 gallon tank sprayer. I have weatherproof screw together connectors, a female at the rear fender and a male running from my sprayer.
Carryall: you will recognize the poached design. Damn it is HEAVY!!. Must be 250 lbs of ballast. Takes the weight off the front axle.
I mounted 2X10s on the frame uprights so the box would clear my ez hitch. This simplified the tool and saw carrier. My tools mount right behind the ROPS where they are protected. Saw scabbard was simplified as well.
The EA toothbar is scary close in tolerances; as in almost none! But the design is right and it works very well.
