    Hmmm. The link sent me to a roof rack.

    I already have 8” round lights. Just lookin for some wacky covers. Aliens, ufos, hypnotist pinwheel, vertigo swirl. Things of that nature.

    Never thought of it. I'll probably do that too but with the spare being underneath not as big of a priority as making the person in front of me laugh a little

    This would be fore the tire carrier. The light covers are an interesting Idea, but I don't know how many people would pay that close attention to something in their rear view mirror.

    I like my old school Hella covers. Not funny but damn almost everybody's eyes naturally gravitate down towards them when passing by the front of my truck cause you barely see these anymore-if at all.

    I looked and yeah they still make stuff, even still make the 550s which are almost identical to my 450s.
    I see my 450s as exactly halfway between present-day and Marty McFly's KC-laden '85 Toyota truck. You just will find it awful hard to spot the old rectangular off-road lights and if you can, they're usually all rusted, bent and lenses kicked out:D

    No it's KC not Hella. I believe Hella was originally developed in Germany.

    Love those Grateful Dead covers. I'm tempted to install some auxiliary lights just as an excuse to get those, haha.

    Didn't know they were German! Looked it up after your post and yup-German. I love the quality of mine and the glass lenses too. Been on my truck for about 14 years and still look brand-new.
