    Anyone seen my wallet?
    Rigid horse with the cutoff shield. I have the RSIs and they are too damn bright even with shields.

    Read these. Note how they significantly out perform the LEDs when using stock housings, including outperforming designs like Rigid Horse with cut off shields.

    Thanks for the great info there.... it is good material there and now i have put a pause on my order of the new opt7 led. I need to do more research and figure out what route is best. I want that LED look, i like to have that bright look but i dont want that blinding oncoming traffic look. These LEDs where super bright but i did have them pointing down some and seemed to be ok, but your right i did notice the light was scattered.

    IM so glad i joined this forum, so much helpful info and people!!!!!!!!
