    Yeah, I have a couple of thule cross bars.. I might try mounting them up there or perhaps some brackets that attach near the taillights. I've also seen folks on here mount them on their racks, but wanted to try to get the lights down a little lower

    Now this is why you should alway remember to take the 30 seconds to check your cabin filter.

    Just keep throwin' money at it.
    Correct, tt uses the window mount. There were two rubbed isolators in between the window and fiberglass, I took them apart and sandwiched the t-bracket in between them. I was a bit nervous mounting it to the window, but its solid and does not contact the glass in this setup. It is mounted to the same point, but isolated from the glass by the rubber spacers SnugTop had there to begin with. I might change it down the road to a more permanent solution. A roof rack would be good, but I don't run mine all the time since its a commuter and the garage at work is a bit short. Without it I have 3" of clearance.

    Nilight: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G620ZVU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They were cheap ($16 from Amazon warehouse) and I resealed them with silicon since I am not sure about their waterproofness. We'll see how they hold up. I figured for backup lights it was a decent price.

    Out with the old, in with the new. Got the rear ADS done, 2.5" with 700# springs and RR's with compression adjusters. Took right around 2 hours with beer breaks. Came inside to rest, because the heat in July in Texas is a rude bastard. I'll take her down the road later and give my feedback. image.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg

    i vacuum mine out on occasion. Usually when I'm doing wiring and pulling the dash apart anyways. Pull the footrest and kick panel as well. Lots of dirt/rocks collect there as well.
