    Yep. Pretty much the deal.

    can't argue with the DIY attitude.

    actually ill have a spare set of mirrors..so really..only need to buy the lights..and ill do the rest.

    Deal would be you'd send me your OEM mirrors after receiving the LED ones. Will come with a harness for the lights..you just need to wire them to a relay and/or switch and your good.

    Those are different too. 5 lugs have unique mirrors, but I assume they have ample interior space for this

    Ahhhh interesting...

    I'm sure you could switch if ya wanted. Same mounts.

    75 is gonna be a OME time thing. That's just to cover cost of lights. Be more expensive after that once I add labor.

    Hell yeah, you have a lot of projects coming up with all the new gear. But I've been thinking where to put these blitzpro 6" lights, just stumbled upon this thread. Shit looks clean! Of course I would send you some extra money for doing it!
