    Got mine installed. The lights i went with are a pain to mount though, i should of put the lights on the bracket first. You have to make sure you adjust them properly or theyll hit the windshield when opening the hood.

    I also used the wireless wiring as mentioned above and it works great. i velcro the remote to above the e-brake

    The light bars that they sell for $350 are also the chinese knock offs too. (yes the one I linked is only 32 inches vs their 43, but the one I linked used to sell a 43) CR charges a extra $60 for the wire harness that comes with the light bar.... they straight up take it out of the box and sell it separately.

    Did mine tonight and took a quick drive. Lights didn't bounce once super soild.

    The $32 lights I got work good. Might have gone with the spot rather then floods but an overall good setup for less than $50.

    Thanks again OP I was saving for the CR ditch lights and this saved me a good amount.

    Will post pics tomorrow.

    In the same topic of these mounts, if you want some cheap ditch lights, walmart sells a baja design s2 clone for $22.98 each. They are the alpena trail fire. I got a pair of them, they are actually pretty bright too. Im not using mine for my truck anymore, but rather they are mounted to magnets so when I am out fishing at night I can stick them to the bridge to light up the fishing area.

    I didn't even know I wanted ditch lights until I got these brackets for 11 bucks.

    It’s really thin plastic, I don’t think I can put a real m3 tape. Maybe just hot glue at edges.
    However you can beat the price.

    When i bought my truck earlier this year, it was missing a badge on the driver side, but had chrome on the passenger, and nothing on the back. I knew i wanted to go with black ones, so i just went with the full black badge vs the overlay. I measured, and then pulled the passenger ones off and replaced with these. Says they arent available right now, but i paid 22 bucks.

    I finally got my hidden light brackets.. they look pretty good. Here are some shots for you. Just a little texture rubbed off from shipping.
