    Finally installed mine this weekend. I went with the Amazon $45, 18,000 lumens special. I'm pretty damn impressed with the light, for the money. Photos definitely don't do it justice, but here are a couple, anyway. led1.jpg

    if you don't tap it, and you use a thru hole bolt, does the crash beam have an access underneath to put a lock washer and nut on?
