    So decided to do a little upgrade on the ditch lights. These are in transit as we speak. I have been looking at this style of light for a while and I am curious to see how they do for ditch lights. Thanks to @KC HiLiTES for the info. Can't wait to get them installed.

    Been looking at something like this to go in place of my fog lights, interested to see how they turn out.

    Edit. What is this model called? There are a million options on their website.

    Look under the FLEX series lights. If these do as good as I think they will I will be replacing the light bar on my roof with some of these.

    Stole my own post from the KC HiLites thread to repost here. :D

    So I have been creeping on the FLEX lights for a bit and always thought they would be a much nicer ditch light then the big ass cubes I have now. Taylor found me talking in @HABOOBS thread about it and tipped me over the fence. Well they arrived today and they got installed tonight. Thanks @Taylor@KC HiLiTES these lights are bad ass.
    Now I want some more!
