    Got my Avec LED spot pods from Amazon today, pretty happy with them.
    I'm not sure what to expect from them because the only LED's I have experience with are interior.
    They outshine my headlights and hi-beams.

    Don't mind the ghetto fabulous wiring, it's just for testing purposes.

    No headlights, just LED's

    Low beams + LED's

    Hi-beams + LED's

    As far as beam reach I would say approximately 75 feet, it's about 65 feet to the edge of the canal and the canal is approximately 10 feet wide.

    I agree about the steering wheel.

    I was reading the reviews on Amazon about the raptor liner and there are a lot of good reviews but there are some people who say it's not for heavy duty use. I should probably just go with line-x cause I know what I'm going to get, but I'm considering linerxtreeme it comes with about 3x gallons and everything else. At least it will be super thick lol.

    How did you secure the quick fists there? Self tap screws?

    Thats fine, i was just curious. On my last truck i bolted a shovel to the wheel well but getting a nut and bolt on down there kinda sucked. I didn't really think about self tap screws

    No. I'm getting AAL. Thank you for catching that! I would have been real confused when they arrived with blocks.

    2am purchasing is risky!
