    Hey guys, I was wondering if any of y’all have ditch lights and needed to remove them to get your windshield replaced.? I’m running Baja designs squadron sports on Cali raised mounts. Mobile glass company is coming to replace windshield tomorrow and wondering if they’ll be in the way. Figured I’d check for input on here before I removed them. Thanks
