    Any of you guys in IT and looking for a new job? My company has a position open for a new IT guy. The way it was described to me is basically a junior network admin. Needs familiarity with routing and switching. Experience with WAN or VOIP is a plus.

    Thanks man! This is the bracket: Antenna/LED Pod Mount (Passenger Side) Fits 2005-2015 Toyota Tacoma https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079ZPXQ49/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_uSUqEb2FBTVMF


    I believe it’s a 4ft antenna? Can measure later. Honestly not sure if I’ll be keeping my CB setup...

    So what kinda of offset would you need to do that with just wheels?

    -32mm offset with whatever BS his wheels have (I think most Methods are 4.75" BS) would match his current 'stance.' Can't say I've seen a wheel with those specs, but thats not to say it doesn't exist.
    I'd imagine some SCS wheels with -38mm offset would be a close match to what @Gilmorec61 has going on.

    Edit: On second thought, the -38mm offset from SCS might have more poke since they have 3.5" BS. The -25mm offset with 3.5" BS might be more closely matched to his current setup.

    So this is V1 of my scene light mount for the OEM roof rack. Still have some contours to measure off the rack, but this is just a quick initial model with what i am envisioning. This one will be made to house a KC rock light due to price and performance. Just ordered one to get some measurements but I'm thinking this is a good start! Shooting for an extremely sleek and low-key final install. Any thoughts are appreciated!

    Hey for this asking about window tint... legal is 32% (plus or minus 3% for tint meter accuracy so you can have 29% and be ok) on the FRONT driver and passenger windows and the front windshield can not be tinted entirely only the top part of the front windshield can be tinted to any darkness. The rear passenger windows and the rear windshield can be as dark as you want.
    If you google
    OCGA 40-8-73.1
    it will give you more information.

    Dude, if you make that I will buys some from you. You also make a dual one that has angles both of the lights out.
    Serious though, this is sellable.

    I'd guess it's for any passenger vehicle, including cars. But Georgia has some wacky stuff going on so, won't assume that's correct.

    These would be sweet! My fiancee's brother does something similar for the side of his roof rack, but he built in some motors that allows him to control where each side is shooting (down for rock crawling and moves them up via an in-cab control when he is camping).

    Have been trying to get him to build some into the side of a Prinsu with me but he has been constantly on deployment

    One of my friends got stopped by GSP not too long ago in her Civic; the ticket was specifically for rear tint. What was odd to me is that it was factory tint (lighter up front, darker in the rear), so idk.
