    Couldn't remember where I got this idea until I looked back far enough in this thread. Thanks for the inspiration, sir!

    I did something similar on my Scion. I live on a super twisty road with no street lights and I leave for work at 4:45AM. The head lights on this car suck. The high beams converge about 100 feet in front of the car. There is zero light around corners. the head lights are only udjustable up and down, not side to side.
    The lightbar fixed that.

    Matt, that looks awesome and I'll give you tons of credit for pulling the trigger on cutting the head liner!! I'd be nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs cutting into the head liner.
    Again, great job!!

    Thanks brother :thumbsup:

    Believe me... I was sweatin it pretty good when I was cutting. But it was suprisingly easy to cut with a good sharp exacto knife... Like, kind of alarmingly easy lol.

    Sorry, never got a notification that you asked this question.

    The right stick is low / high range
    The left stick is 4x / Neutral / 2x

    It gives me ability to be in 2wd low without spinning my CVs (I'm manual hub). I also think it's easier to shift between low / high range... and I also just think it looks cooler than the Jshifter lol.

    It would take more than a shifter to do that.
