    +1. Had CBI for this reason. 1st Gen though but would look great on your 2nd Gen I'm sure. Would buy again.

    Shitty LED:rofl::rofl:

    Just know they are $20 for a reason. A friend bought a set about a month ago and they have been in the garbage since a week after delivery... he thought he was going to make me look like an idiot for spending $100 on a set of pods. They do produce "light" but it isn't usable... there is no spot to it, and the flood is only good if you want light to wax your hood.

    Haha mine do good. They were $20 on eBay. Probably considerably less light than the high end models but as little as they are even used...I'll take the cheapos lol. If they could be run on the road I would spend the extra money. But I doubt I'll be doing a whole lot of night wheeling

    Some circles $100 is cheap.
    $20 I have had mine about a year.
    No condensation. Lots of snow and rain.
    I am very happy with light output.
    Mainly Used just for camping or lighting up ditches.. so no hood glare issues for me.

    I'm not pushing auxbeam. This is my trial run to see if I wanted or needed to spend more on "better" lights.:notsure:

    $100 is cheap... I agree.

    But that's the cheapest "usable" light I've found.

    Post some output pics of your auxbeam if you have a chance. A friend has some regular GG G3 pods... I'll have him send me a pic if he is home and I'll post them up.

    Edit: Not pushing GG either at all... just pushing good light if you're going to spend time for install.

    Rigids are the benchmark of quality. And I've had them on my last truck just wondering if something a gg lighting G3 is comparable. Like a third the price and a lifetime warranty too!
