    I got it through the Illumination Supply GB so I'm not sure on the brand, I didn't find the info on his website and never asked. And yes its a 20", going to mount it behind my grille. We'll see how it holds up.

    Cool. I've been debating either a LED bar or lightforce 170s for the bumper.
    So far the 170s are winning.

    The 170s are sweet. At 173mm they'd fit nicely in the relentless cutouts. Is that where you're planning on putting them?

    On top of the bumper under the hoop. There is a guy on here with 240s on his relentless bumper. They are HUGE, but it looks pretty cool.
    Here is his.

    I'm f'n retarded. 173mm != < 4", wow, apparently I might have had a little too much whiskey last night. Disregard statement about fog cutouts. :eek:

    Yeah those 240s are large, a little too large for my liking but I'm sure they can melt candles.

    lol. Yeah, they look cool, but too big for me too. Thats the reason I'm going 170s.

    Instead of taking on a new project and installing the new light bar last weekend I decided to finish up some items I've been working on. Redid the door liner on my fenders using some super glue this time. They should hold better now. And finished my CB install. Probably going to relocated the handset since that piece of plastic isn't super solid. Maybe I'll go with a tech deck solution.

    Yeah, when it started to get cold here it pulled away from the bends on all but one of them (I circle below). I put a heavy dose of glue on the bends this time. We'll see if that helps.

    Nice.

    Totally unrelated but I was looking TC site. If you guys don't get 2000 subs do they not ship out?

    That is the same spot that mine pulls away as well. I have already replaced my rear passenger side. I just decided to keep next role of that stuff in the garage for when I need it.

    we're debating that...we'll try to get them out one way or another, but if we cannot then we'll be issuing refunds or credits toward subscriptions going forward.

    it's not cost effective to ship out at the subscription price with the current level. we need to bump up the volume to get better pricing from printing.
