What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Good to know. I need to look them up. I like the slider in the middle rather than the Leer’s I’ve been looking at.

 

I have the Squadron Pros/Combo amber fog lights installed just two days ago.
So tonight I drove for about 2 hrs round trip to a friends birthday.
When on the freeway....easily 1/2 mile ahead, these fog lights seriously light up like I have never seen before the reflective freeway signs, the big green ones. I have the fogs pointed slightly down in front....they are pointed lower than my low beams. BUT like I mentioned it’s like holy moly not only are these bright but blows up those signs and anything else that has any kind of reflectivity!
And when driving on 4 and 2 lane roads I still have not been flashed by anyone like as in my lights are too bright.
So a few questions...should I be even running these on when driving on city streets......or do amber lights in general when scattered maybe lens wise just blow up reflective signs and anything else?
In all my years of driving with any kind of lights never seen signs this bright even with high beams on. And I am sure other drivers around me are seeing those signs lit up like Las Vegas!
I mean I love it and totally impressed.....just don’t want to be that idiot if I shouldn’t be running these as ‘running’ lights with my regular low beams.
Obviously if it doesn’t bother others...I guess it’s ok.....
Regardless I’m driving and it’s like holy chit and I’m like laughing on what these lights are doing!

 

Isn't this the truth. Was trying to get it all installed in one go. Got 6/8 rivets and shut the hood and went into town. I don't use rivets that often, and when I do, I don't again for awhile. They make me feel weak.

 

Sports would prob be fine for Street use, but IMO the PROS are a tad too bright. Also lens is a factor..

 

Thanks man! Yes, it is the 6112/5160 Bilstein kit. Coilovers are set at 5/4 and have the Dakar pack in the rear. Didn't want to pay for UCA's so I kept it around two inches.

 

Some shelltop action. Installed
This afternoon.

 

Installed carbon fiber vinyl stickers on the tailgate. Came out really nice!

 

Nice. That’s the exact setup I’m wanting. Hopefully headstrong off-road gets the kit back in stock soon... I’m going 3/4 for the same reason. I don’t want new UCA’s. But I’m ACLB so hopefully I land around the same height.

 

Exactly what I am looking at for my DCLB turd sport
Can i ask a few questions?
where did you order from?
how is the ride quality compared to stock?
stiffer?
plusher?
with stock front springs?
how are the dakars when unladen?
how are they with a ton of shit in the box?
how much actual lift did you get?
are you running a diff drop up front?

Thanks!

 

I like it! If I'll get just some of these stupid people off my ass then I'm in! Already put it in my Amazon "Save For Later" list.

 

Our LED Light Bars and LED Auxiliary Lights are not DOT Approved or Street-Legal so street use would be up to driver discretion. We do not recommend using Squadron Pros on the street with any oncoming traffic. The only "Street Friendly" setup that many customers run without issues is the Squadron Sport in Wide Cornering (Amber or White), but you still have to be cautious since these aren't street-legal.

Glad you're enjoying the lights! Might want to take it easy on the street use with oncoming traffic.

Running errands this morning and see the message symbol illuminated, no message.

Far from my 25k service, so need to investigate. Had a minute and did a search- found I am not the only one but thought I would post this fwiw.

The message symbol appeared before, but always had a message.

Interesting.

 

Running with those lights on on a public way would get your butt pulled over in a heartbeat here in the nanny state of Massachusetts. In addition unless I'm not mistaken off road lighting use is not only prohibited on a public way but required to be covered as well. That said you have the added problem of the acting police officers mood & interpretation of the law. Suggest you check your local laws. If you find them in writing, copy it and put it with your registration just in case you get called out on it.

 

If it's that bright on your side of the lights, imagine how bright it is for oncoming traffic. I think you answered your own question.

 

Has it been 4500 miles since your last service? If so, that comes on as a reminder to go in for service. It’s not tied to the 25,000 odometer setting. It’s tied to how many miles you’ve driven since your last service.

 

Last night I finished installing my new @Mobtown Offroad Bolt On Rock Sliders .



Today I took a few photos:



As per my request built flat at 0° (instead of standard upward angle) to be used as a step by my kiddos.

 

Ordered the $200 knockoff pro grill, should arrive in 7-15 days.

 

Thanks, that is exactly correct.

Didn't notice symbol by itself before- always had a corresponding message about service- appreciate your reply.

 

Can you post a picture from the side near wheel level ? I'm leaning towards these at a 0 degree as well depending on if @mobtownoffroad decides on the aluminum sliders are going to be made.
