    I actually like them because they're low profile and I agree about the two looking like eyebrows. You'd have to include at least three and make sure they're rather bright. I can't speak about mounting because I don't have my Taco yet to look as a reference, as long as there isn't new drilling and it only uses existing mounts or uses the door jams for mounting, then I'd consider it. I'm a low cost budget kinda guy, so they'd have to be affordable for the average bloke.

    With 4 across you minus well get a full light bar with a uniform light pattern.

    They might look better mounted in the bed though.

    I think this is a really good idea, but I think the design is lacking what others really want.

    What if.... you used the same mounting system to put one big light bar across the top? I’m not saying it would be everyone’s must have mod, but it would appeal to anyone that wants a roof light (which are a lot of people) and eliminate having to drill the A Posts or have the ugly bracket sticking off of the same posts.

    I genuinely think there is a market for this, using the unused roof rack holes is brilliant. You just need to mock up version 2.0
