    I dont really want a spotlight, I just want some general off road lighting... I will never run another roof mounted light bar due to the noise factor....

    I might have to see someone photo shop it to see how it looks haha

    yea they wouldnt be ditch lights, I just used that term so everyone would know where I'm thinking of putting them.

    So what lights have been peaking your interest? I have to admit the rigids on @90yota 's ride is pretty slick with the side lighting. If I wasn't such a BD fanboy, I would of gotten those. They have great functionality.

    I'm not sure, I'm looking at anything from off brand lights on Amazon w/ good ratings to Cali Raised ditch lights.... No clue really...

    I have never seen the value in rigid... they make an excellent product, but in my eyes, they are SOOOO overpriced that it kills all value that they have. I can buy 10 cheap lights for the cost of 2 rigids haha

    Normally I agree with the price for the name, but the "side shooter" aspect of these are really worth it. Its up to you, but shit lights at night don't work for me off road.

    I believe in Rigid's pod lights. I have them as my fogs, and they have been under water, in snow and ice, and anything else east coast can throw at me. Got the non DOT ones for $200 shipped on Amazon. I forgot the actual model, but its on my build thread.

    My light bar is Amazon. I forget the name, but I recently got it replaced under warranty because there was condensation and mold inside the plexiglass. I had barely used it. I think I bought it in November for $70.

    I will eventually be replacing my ditch lights like Mike's, and moving the current ones to the bed. But i want to pay for the good ones.

    So I have watched a video on Youtube where a guy directly compares Auxbeam led pods and the rigid duallys, and the light output on the rigids were WAY better as a spotlight, but the light output as a flood was pretty decent on the Auxbeam. so we'll see.... I might just stick w/ CaliRaised for the ditch and fogs as well....

    but recently, the Baja Designs Squadron Sports are looking pretty solid as well.

    Absolutely! I'll stop by on the way home from work.... probably be there around 4:20-4:30... does that work?

    Feel free to come by and piss off my neighbors lol. We are not modding though.

    I got an email back. The lady could not confirm or deny what i was asking. But she said if she gets any complaints, she will let me know. To me, that means i will continue, and unless i get a citation, im free to go!

    I've been rolling like that since I took my truck to Mobtown to get my bumper installed. Figured the stock one doesn't do anything anyway. I need to regear but need to save for the move

    You can get preassembled diffs from them. Then just swap, and ship yours back
