    If you want to pay an extra 300 for it Tim might do it. I know when i talked to him he said it was a major pain and time constraint so he didn't think he would ever do it again.

    You mentioned yet MORE lights going on your truck? exactly how many can you get before you end up beefing up your alternator? Seems like you've got some serious wattage pulling off yours.

    Ya my system has killed three batteries back in the day when i used to actually use all thepower haha

    And ya you should be fine. LEDs don't pull hardly anything. The lights you won't use a ton in all reality without the truck running anyways. You'll be fine
