    I bet that light bar on the roof glares off the hood badly. Unless he has it set back far enough that it is cutoff by the roof.

    Well after looking around, I might get the 21" bar from blitzpro. I know not a ton of light, but I don't need a ton of light.

    TRD Sport hood, TRD Sport paint matched rear bumper and grill, BDF grill light bracket with some Rigids, 40" Rigid roof bar, SPOD, Stereo, Pro Comp Prorunner front strut lift and rear shocks, PXA 7036 Wheels-285/70R17 BFG AT/KOs and some other stuff
    Here are the pics, and no I am not afraid of the dark... I just like lights and 12volt electrical plus I wanted to build something different than anything I had ever seen before. Call it a waste, but hey, that is why we all buy our own trucks and build them the way we want not to someone else's standards or ideals.
    The pictures done't really do the Rigid lights justice though as to how bright they are. The other really nice thing about the Rigids is how focused they are.

    Now, I used to have Lightforce 170 Strykers with the HID upgrade on my old TJ and those definitely threw the light farther but they were no where neat as focused. I just did not want a 9" tall light on the truck and the Rigids fit nicely in the areas I put them.

    Thanks for all the compliments and those that don't like it... eh.... Who cares. :D

    High beams on only.

    40" bar only. There is no glare from either the roof light or the hood light at all. You have more glare from opposing traffic with their headlights on. These lights are more focused than any standard light out there whether Hella, PIAA, KC, etc.

    All the Rigid lights on
