    ToughLight = Aurora = Chinese Rigid Knock Off

    From what I have seen with my keyboard they seem to hold up well and are comparable to Rigids. Everyone who has them likes them. Unless they can afford the Bajas and Rigids; hen they say the Auroras are crap. :)

    I'm probably going to get a 32" since it matches my Duallys and I don't need the best money can buy just to play in the dirt.

    Yeah I have no problems with knock offs for my use. I noticed the cheaper brands do either spot or flood, while companies like Rigid do a combo of the two. Any feedback on this?

    not sure:notsure: i know its a custom deaver pack made for mike's kit so maybe thats how he wants it?
    he also has an XL leaf pack made to handle more weight so maybe that one is triple wrapped with that extra leaf

    Anybody that has installed their own glass was removing the fenders pretty straight forward just unbolting the old fender or is there spot welds also. I cant find any write ups, also any advice on the bedsides?

    I doubt you would miss it. Its technically triple wrapped but if the last leaf is all you have left your in trouble anyway lol

    its pretty easy taking everything off, its putting the glass on that sucks. Oh and for some reason I wasn't able to remove the antenna from the fender so I had to cut it. I could install a whole long travel kit, but I couldn't get the antenna out of the fender...who'da thought
