    I'm down at Emerald Isle a decent amount. I see your signature pic has the Coast Guard flag. Are you stationed around the area? My grandparents live just down from the CG Station on the south west side of the island near Bear Island. I will probably be there in a couple of weeks. We should meet up.

    Aren, I will be back down there next week and every week for the rest of my working career with the company... so if you want to meet up again and get the photos, I'd be down for that, and if you want for me to take that gear you want to sell up to Raleigh to Tim (Sandman614) I can do that for you as well. Sorry we couldn't meet up again yesterday.

    After a bunch of BS, I think I finally am done with retrofitting these suckers. First one of the high beams wouldn't work, then the ceramic locking piece on one of the bulbs broke (horrible design, had to buy new bulbs), and one leaked water after I sealed em up. Hopefully it doesn't leak again lol.

    Whaa? Leave the sand bags in your bed to help with winter traction, as well as settle the AAL. Bags should be <$5 for like 50 lbs.

    You could always buy some sandbags for about $.20 each and fill them with free dirt. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

    Where could I buy those at? I could do that and go by my old house and dig a ton of sand/dirt up and fill them up.
