    What do you think about this idea? Put Duallys on either side facing outwards to see the side of the road and a 50'' in between. It would take some work to get the 50'' mounted but I think that it would look pretty sick. But would there be too much glare on the hood?

    Could you post the total dimensions for this? I realize cutting of the cowling would be needed for a 1st gen, I just would like to measure out how much I would need to cut. I am considering getting them.

    With the curvature of the windshield, I don't think the hood would open fully with a 50" bar spanning them. Please try and let us know what happens though. I hold no liability for a broken windshield!:D
    I don't deal with the lights anymore. It's all up to you!
    They don't bolt to the hood hinge. Different distances between bolts.
    Just like stated in OP, send $60 via paypal to FamousFabrication@hotmail.com, in the "memo" box, put your address USPS ships to. They'll get there.:cool:
    ^^^close enough^^^;)

    With that taken care of...WHERE THE PICS AT!?

    Received my brackets on Saturday, they are very nice. Well worth the $60, great powdercoat finish and the install was super easy. Now if my Rigids would show up I'd be in business!

    Thanks
