    Led bar up top, another tucked away in lower grille. 6" Pro Comp, 35's.
    Except for my headlights and fogs, I now have all led's from VLED's in my truck, even the vanity lights on the sun visors. Just got my dome light in today to complete them. They are certainly not the cheapest by any means, however, I have yet to find better quality at their price point.

    Agreed. I have my headlights and fogs through VLEDS too and love them. Perfect bright, white light output. :D

    No, I guess I have the ones right before the new ones came out. I still love them though. :D

    *At the time I did get the newest fog light version which wasn't even released yet and VLEDS gave me 25% off for purchasing them in advance.

    The V3 Triton Switchback kit comes with everything for an easy install. IIRC the resistor plugs into a clearly marked area that connects with the rest of the assembly.

    Give it time. Prices went up because they just came out with the version 2.5. They will drop back down around $100 again soon.
