    If your paying for Rigid Lights you might want to talk to @Baja Designs he has some awesome deals on lights.

    I think Baja designs are better than rigid...

    Just my opinion :anonymous:

    He also never said they were not... I asked for comparisons of CaliRaised and Rigid. That's why I asked him for clarification.

    If you are money conscience and want a light thats gonna be a good bang for your buck go with the cali raised lights or freedom led they are both Similar. but freedom led will donate to veterans etc with every purchase.
    Both lights have great output and for the price cant be beat.

    Yeah I tried a ton of mods to my original CaliRaised light bar. Some that I had made for me here where I work and the best I could get it was a whistle similiar to that of the one you get in your ear from time to time. Except this one was constant. :annoyed: Now I know how someone with Tinnitus feels.

    Yep, it's a bit of a pain in the ass. I have to do it about once a week and I cus it out every time.

    But the haul to my cabin is quite which makes me put it back on. Plus I leave the valence bar uncovered and ditch lights uncovered.

    Thanks to everyone for the replies. I've decided that the CaliRaised unit is most definitely worth the price, thanks to all your feedback. Will be ordering it very soon. Thanks again.
