    Thanks for posting this, I hope so! Just ordered, but don't think I realized those lights were $65 a pop :)

    After getting down to brass tacks, I had to slightly revise me prices on all housings. I now have a legitimate business(with overhead, taxes, blah blah). I still try and keep it very reasonable for the quality and product you get though:)
    They aren't cheap, but then again they are made 100% USA and have the quality to back it up. Memario will hook you up with a better price.

    Happily joined the Meso cult with my first three products - looking forward to 'em Stew!

    Also @mesojdm, question on the KC cyclones - there are two lens cover options for white light: clear and diffused. Would the diffused cover impact output, in your view? Just considering the best match for two whites and three reds in the housing.

    The Gasshole was my first. And it's one of those that is so simple and you use it all the time and wonder to yourself why Toyota didn't think to do it.

    It is also the gateway Meso product. Go ahead and start putting money in a separate bank account now. My kids may not go to college on my dime, but they'll be super proud of Dad's truck while they work towards those scholarships!

    Let's see:

    Headlight plates
    Ultimate Tail Stage 1
    Ultimate Brake (not counting the lights themselves)
    ECT Hidden On Switch shifter
    Minimalist key fob
    Molle Overhead Rack
    1 Strip Side Markers
    Gasshole
    Ultimate Maps
    Ultimate Dome
    Extended Height Fuse Cover
    Ultimate Turn Signals (V.4)
    Coin Tray

    Not including any switch panels (since that is personal preference) and not counting any new products or versions, your best bet is just to write Meso a $1000.00 dollar check (with wiggle room depending on options) and then just sit by the mailbox. Then you only have to keep about $400 set aside for new versions that suddenly drop that you suddenly find yourself NEEDING to replace the old ones. lol.

    @mesojdm on the second gen are there any of the lights angled downward for the rear bed lights or all angled the same direction?

    Yes it’s an NMO “mount” but NOT the antenna. I think Meso made these housings specifically for a 3/8” hole mount NMO as opposed to a thin mount 3/4”.


    You can get any NMO mount and pair it up with an antenna for your specific frequency.

    Do you have a specific use for the antenna? HAM, GMRS, etc are all going to run on separate frequency but you can get one antenna to sort of be a jack of all trades, master of none.

    PMs replied to! Thanks for the nod Stew! :cheers:
    Go with the clears, and don't look back. I've played with them both, and in terms of light dispersion the clear lens just works better...

    I think the NMO option will be a great drill-less solution for a WeBoost Drive 4G-X Fleet.
    The Wilson 4G NMO Antenna spec sheet lists a mount option of 901150 (3/4" NMO) but the Antenna page itself also lists 905814 (3/8" NMO) as compatible.
    The cable type is also a RG58U.

    Low profile and should look great.

    I've been considering the NMO mount light for exactly this reason. I'm eager to see your install and how it looks/functions!
