    Not yet. I'm heading home on our 96 to get it and make the 1,250 mile drive down the road back to base.

    Recruit training and the School of Infantry sucked, but fleet life so far hasn't been too bad aside from the typical boot stuff they make us do

    Haha actually tho, retrofitting looks so damn good but I've heard of them crapping out more than I would have liked to :/

    Bumpers transform the hell out of your truck but you do have to save quite a bit of duckets

    Really? Only thing I've heard is the old halos would go bad, but they started using new ones. I've heard like the HID kit has problems but not too often.

    After I pay off the truck that'll be the next thing I save for. Probably a hybrid bumper

    People have problems with the ballasts and new halos. On my second set of ballasts and one still doesn't fire all of the time. My LEDs on my halos are burning out as well....

    I've had my retro set up for about a year and a half. I've had one ballast go bad and one bulb replaced. Bulb worked fine but the wires started separating at the base so I had TRS send me a new one. I'm super happy with mine. I thought I'd have a lot of problems after I did it but maybe I've been lucky :notsure:

    That's why I'm going LED, reliable and no retrofit needed.
