You can do it on your own bro!!! I swear. I don't know crap about doing stuff on my own until I started trying. Yeah you're gonna mess up sometimes but that's how you learn.

As far as led lights go, what's the purpose? If it's for night time fishing you're better off investing in a quality head lamp and a light stick, these will make you far more visible that adding led lights to your deck.

Ok, duly noted (Now I feel like a noob :/) or should I say the Noob I am lol...Seriously, thank you for saving me for future regret #1 What kind of pump is it that you use to plumb the Stealth 14, or any other live well?

The most common one is the tsunami pump, it comes in two styles, one is used to hang over the kayak and the other fits in your bait tank, both have their pros and cons. Is a bait tank something you can make at home? Definitely! If you don't have the know how I'm sure OEX can set you up with one.

Hey I'm pretty mechanical but not always a jack of all trades. Like the others said, do your research, always lay out your work and like the old saying"measure twice- cut once!" I have been really surprised at some of the things I've fixed or repaired. Just take your time and I'm sure you'll do great! Also ask these guys on BWE. Lots of really good guys that are happy to help out! Good luck! Jim

JORLUIVIL - Thank you very much for this information, greatly appreciated..


And JPP. got cha, so I know these Mods' require the electric drill to create the holes for the wire and what not to channel to the battery, What are those drill bit things that go onto the drill and create circles called, or should I say what are these drill bit attachments called?

Hole saw? Although for most smaller things I'd probably use a regular drill bit.

I also strongly second jpp9565's comment to measure twice and cut once. You can also practice on scrap plastic before drilling into your kayak. Your workmanship will increase with practice.

Good luck and post some pics!
