    I never liked the CB mic overhead. Sure it looks cool and reminds me of the 1970s trucker movies I grew up watching but it's not a practical location for grabbing and resetting when driving.

    Also when wheeling the last thing I want is to introduce the potential of a mic drop (get it?) on my head or my passenger's head.

    Sounds too EAF for me. I'll just keep it in my lap or cup holder when I'm using it.

    Hey what lights are you running on the underside of your bed rack? I can't find anything that slim

    I mounted the bracket for the hitch wiring. It looks so much better than trying to tuck the pigtail out of the way.

    Just want to do an led bar under each bed bar. But most LED bars are super chunky

    Yeah I'm going to illuminate the bed, do you have a way to get these? Looks like BlitzPro went tits up so I guess those little bars you have are limited edition.

    You can also get herpes at a truck stop for $2... doesn't mean I want it.

    I think I still have 6 of them. Unless I gave two to Jon, can't remember, then I have 4.

    I'm going to use two as back up lights eventually when I get around to hooking them up.

    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.
    I used something like these. Worked awesome.

    https://www.superbrightleds.com/cat/rigid-light-bars/

    Got them from a member on here so doubt you can get my exact one. But Id recommend a rigid bar like that. Low profile and bright and easy to place in different spots.

    Fixed a rock chip in my grill before it started to peel the rest of the paint.
