    Gotcha. I just like it better because if you don't like it, or want to change it, peel it off. Plus, if you want a gloss finish, you can do that too.

    I never found that the gloss plasti dip spray did much... I've tried it several times and it was a minor difference at best.
    I agree it is nice to do if you want to change it or don't like it.. i ended up just debadging mine though for the smooth look. Makes life so much easier when waxing.

    You won't be disappointed with those lights. I have 6 pairs under the truck.

    You have a switch inside your cab for them I assume? Got a write up or one you followed?

    Yes, the switch is inside the cab. You can see how I ran them in this post.

    I ran a dual conductor wire around the perimeter of the truck and tied each light into the hot and negative as I went around.

    I have a couple of sets at the house that I'll be installing in the new bed once it's built. They put out a very nice diffused light so they should work great. And at $5 a piece you can't go wrong.

    Yup, they work great. Good luck with your install.
