    So....lately my battery light has been coming on my dash panel (i have a dual battery set-up with Blue Seas ML-ACR) both batteries without the engine running have a reading over 12volts...I'm thinking maybe its a ground issue? but any insight if anyone else has run into this??????

    Guys I have a problem. My steering wheel shakes when braking and sometimes just driving. I have pretty new ebc pads and new rotors with brand new wheels and tires. Any ideas?

    Maybe the balance on the wheels, since you said you have new rotors and those wouldnt shake in just normal driving, and since your tires are new i doubt they are cupped(worn with high-low tred) the only thing i could think is the wheels werent balanced :notsure:

    I just saw the pic on the main page of these lights. If you need advice on these guys let me know. I import a set of these lights to my specs and I can tell you there are a lot on the market that are really bad.

    The ones I have are by far my favorite lights! A pair has the same or better out put than many 50" bars.

    I have these, super cheap and made by hella so I liked them better than the standard red rings, they work pretty good but looks like they are discontinued so getting hard to find, but when you can find them they are only $50-60 each
