    Simple. You keep the SS3's and give me the Shelby. I'll try to figure out something on lighting upgrades. Might take a bit though ...

    BTW, A good friend of mine has a white one coming.

    Sent question to them to see if they fit already but thank you for the link.

    EDIT: should have read the fine print before sending in a question. Says right there they won't fit. Oh well.

    Very generous offer.

    Might still need (want) the inbound lights because it appears that the wife is going to quit working if I can afford that car. Thinking of a word that begins with a "B"

    Great service again, now the big decision. Truck, lights and married OR car and divorced. Leaning towards the car.

    Are you hoping to poll the greater TW community on how you should proceed with your life? Because I know exactly how that's gonna go...

    I had the BD squadrons prior (came with the truck) and they were not going to work for fog.

    Definitely. Nice lights, but not for fog street use as covered in the original post.

    Interesting! They spec the same emitters as the DD Max. I don’t see SAE fog listed in the output patterns though.

    Edit: Hopefully they are not going the Baja pre-SAE route and advising people to install off road lights into their fogs for street use. Based on that ad, calling them Fog +, with vehicle specific fog kits, and no offered fog pattern, my hopes are not high.

    Just when you thought LED pods couldn't get ANY UGLIER... Well, just wait. Q4 2021.

    Hey @memario1214 how come you can share distributor literature for Morimoto but we can't get anything on the big boy pods from DD? :D

    I don't think Colton owns a collared shirt like Paul from DD likes to wear, so he doesn't have a pass to share the whitepaper ;)
