    Don't let the dealer keep them, they are definitely worth fixing up.

    I have a buddy that works with retrofits if you need someone to take a look at them. Should be a fairly easy fix and then you can sell them or keep them and that's more money in your pocket!

    I'm super picky about the look of headlights - having such a large reflector basin for a small projector area just doesn't look right to me. Even if its got a shroud to cover most of it. My retrofit buddy already wants to do a set for me I just haven't come across a need for it yet. The stock headlights and LED foglight upgrade I have is more than sufficient enough for my needs at the moment. Plus I kind of went awol with buying skids....

    Gas Tank skid / LCA skids going on today along with the last piece of the SOS rear section skid. I want to pick up a rear diff skid next and that'll be it for the truck for under-armor... Spring will be bumpers and a much dreaded lift... I really like to stock ride of the truck - however with the armor and bumpers it'll be necessary.

    Rush was my very 1st concert. I've never seen Sabbath or Ozzy so I figured I should before they are never around again

    You should look at LS460 projectors, they're nice and big. As far as the need, I agree, there's no real 'need' for them. I had them and yanked them out and went back to halogen. The projectors just add another component that can fail in my opinion. The lights were sweet, just not really necessary.

    I got carried away... I have a problem with skids.. My evo has skids along with my former WRX. I made a custom skid setup for my Taurus SHO before that as well. The wrx/evo's skid's were aluminum and were just bent piece's nothing welded.

    Yeah, right. Being one of those 'state employees' who gets a monthly check doesn't really appeal to me.

    If you found my videos we were almost all running Duratrac's. The 1st gen that was suffering was running BFG AT's. No one had snow tires

    The pictures posted
    I had my Hankook MT's, Billy with highway tires and Nick had some type of AT's (I think)

    Ah alright I have your videos playing right now. Pretty fun looking - I'll definitely have to give that a shot this year.
