    Looking to get a set of ditch/pillar lights, but there are too many options out there ranging from $100-$800. Not looking to spend over $400.

    I've looked into Rigid industries, SDHQ off road, heretic studio, Cali Raised.

    Any suggestions??

    We have the brackets for 50 even, with a combo price with 2x2 20W pods for $100 or our 18w 3x2 for 110 and 3x2 amber pod for 120. If you have any question feel free to PM me.

    Do you have any pictures of the un-mounted brackets [for the 3rd gen]? The pictures on your site don't really give me a sense of what the actual brackets look like and how they mount.

    Just picked up their ditch brackets last week. Great fit, easy install, good quality. Solid product for a good price.
    One of the best $50 lighting accessories I've purchased

    Thumbs up to Cali raised! :headbang:

    Looks good. That's what I was thinking.. Was it hard trying to route the wires to there? I see there is a bunch of stuff, so its hard to get your hand through the jungle of wires...

    I was thinking of drilling a circle hole at the back of the cubby.
