    Yup, can't do that.

    I'm not off on weekends and all of my friends are. So unless I plan to walk 20 miles to a shop to have them pressed in I'm out of luck haha

    Working on the rock lights right now, then plan on throwing a couple of lights in the tent.

    Tomorrow I plan on putting in new tie rods and Thursday I should be getting new wheel bearings and lower ball joints installed.

    Gonna be a good weekend.

    Brent, I ended up running 13 of those strips under the truck. You can get away with 12 though. My 13th light is where the spare tire goes, but it's up a little too high to do too much good.

    Got the rock lights finished. I'll get pics later as is just now got dark and I'm waiting on a pizza haha

    Annoyingly one of the lights is cool white instead of pure white, so I'll have to change that out eventually.

    Also ran out of all 100ft of my tech flex loom! And not all of my wiring that I've installed is even loomed! :eek:
    So only the driver side is loomed... :(

    Seem pretty bright during the day. I probably have enough, but plan to add 4 more so I can have one centered on all four sides of the truck. Go big or go home right? Haha

    Very nice! I really need to put a few of these in the bed and under the hood. They're too cheap not to just buy a bunch more. :)

    Hey how serious are you about my snorkel? There's one guy ahead of you and I'm just waiting to hear a final word from him. If he doesn't want it it's yours if you do.

    So the pics came out like crap.... Don't know why as they looked great on the camera but bad on the computer... Oh well.... Just reference my bed lights if you want to understand how bright they are. I'll try to get some better pics some day.

    All of the light mounts are moveable, allowing me to stick them anywhere on the sliders, rear bumper, or front bumper respectively...
