    They make all types of mid-priced emergency lights. So far, the quality has been spot on, but they aren't as expensive as say Whelen. I have a bunch of their T3 lights, Fusion 400 lightbar in the back window, Storm Pro 100W siren, and a Triton 100W speaker. I tried to keep as low-profile as possible because I try to not be one of those volunteer firefighters with their truck covered in 10 million IM A FUCKING FIRE FIGHTER BRO stickers. Also, I like supporting a local company.

    Here is my truck with just the front lights on. I tried to not be a UFO flying down the road, but there are enough lights to be in compliance with the law while still making people move out of the way/able to do traffic control.

    Bigger than expected, without a doubt. I tried to get the same size lights as the ARB ones, because they look good but there was no way I was dropping 1800 on lights.

    Question for you guys. I'm picking up a set of wheels and tires from a member on Saturday, and they do not have TPMS with them. I've called a few places for quotes for new TPMS and install, and as it stands Discount has been the cheapest at $60 per. I had been limiting my search to shops nearby, but if anyone can recommend someone that might be cheaper in the Austin area, I'll drive to them.

    Do your current wheels not have tpms that can be swapped over?

    Going from stock steel to alloy. I was under the impression that the angle was different, therefore needing new ones.

    I have alloy wheel TPMS that I could sell you. I just put electric tape over the tire light. Let me know if you're interested.

    I'm not 100%, but I thought they could be used and just turned- it would result in them breaking if there was a flat, but it'd buy you some time if it's possible. Anyone know for sure?

    Or better yet, just buy @Texoma's :)

    I need to install my rock (christmas) lights before I head out to Hidden Falls tomorrow!
