    Well everyone got too it before me. Its just to make everything look nice and neat. Plus with electrical stuff usually the more organized it is the less likely it is to fuck your shit up lol.

    Exactly and added safety for all your components. Having each device fused protects the other devices from a surge among other benefits like not exceeding the amperage of the wire you are using causing a fire. Organization and electrical protection

    All of the above. It can be for whatever your needs are and is upgradable and helps clean it up and make it easier to diagnose problems as well. But mostly what @buyobuyo said. If you don’t need all that then i wouldn’t Jump into it. I’m trying to set it up for later additions and upgrades so it is plug and play and simpler come the time. Plus i like redundancy in my preparedness and systems.

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    So... Regarding my 90K Service. AutoNation just called me. He needs to complete his research, but the customer service manager says he will likely refund the entire amount the wife paid. He also said that he will be have a talk with the advisor that added all of the shyte to my appointment.

    We shall see... Maybe he was just blowing smoke.

    Definitely, BD is the best. Only other light I’d consider running is rigid, and that’d be for their unique lights like scene, chase and backup lights.

    They certainly are expensive. If I hadn’t won the 20” bar and seen the light, I probably still wouldn’t have them. I had a “light force” bar before as a nice middle ground between cheap Chinese and the high end premium ones. It was a really solid light.

    Having the best is very important when the consequence of failure is very important.

    If my CaliRaised light fails, it means I still trudge along down the forest road at 5-20mph with just my regular headlights. I ain't racing the Baja 1000 so I am good with good enough.


    Now condoms and guns? I will spend extra cash there. Cost/Benefit Analysis.

    Agreed to an extent. I had cheap lights and they kept failing and failing because of condensation and it got old, and the truck just looked shitty because of water filled lights. Got sick of it so I bought nicer light force bar for a little under $300. Then sold it when I won the bd.

    It’s hard to preach about how baja is worth the price without sounding like a hypocrite, when I won the 20” bar for free, but it really did sell me on the lights once I felt and saw the quality. Bought some fogs to go with it and those are really the only forward facing bars I’ll ever need and Im confident they’ll last a life time.

    What about that 40" S8 we were talking about for your roof?

    I'm actually stuck between upgrading my fog lights with either Baja Design or Rigid Industries. I saw the new OEM replacement by Rigid, just not sure if I like the idea of a circle or the square look the BD ones give. I'm leaning towards BD - Any specific models yall would recommend? I like the straight amber/yellow look.
