What kind of car hit you?
It was another truck I was told. I was unconscious then delirious when the ambulance took me away. He was doing 60+ I'm sure cause the speedlimit is 55. The cop said both vehicles were totalled.

I've been in a t-bone accident like that when I was in HS. Snowy roads up in Kenosha WI and we were at a 4-way stop sign in a small Buick, pulled out and CRUNCH! We were broad sided by a drunk who likely never even touched his brakes. I was a passenger and we got hit on the DS. One of the people in the back seat flew out the back window and the other suffered multiple injuries. The driver almost didn't make it, but pulled through after a few weeks. I was untouched, except for some glass in my head. The settlement paid for my Galaxy 500.

Don't want to overshadow anything, just figured people like to read stories and I wanted to share how bad things could have been. Again, very glad you're ok BAMF.

Hey guys!
I made a video last week on the unboxing and installation of the 4x4FLSTC LED Projector Fog Lights.
I didn't share it here because they were $130.00 at that time. But Harry (The Amazon seller) dropped the price and gave me a coupon code to share with you guys. This will make the light $104.99. I know, I know, I know. That's still over $100..... But it is so darn close, I thought it would share anyways.
You can grab the code from my Instagram account

It's only good for 3 months!
Happy modding and thanks for all your guys' support!

left a comment on YouTube about these. I bought the Z Off-road version of these (didn’t know you had a code and all dang it). I had to use the stock brackets and dremel the hole for the pins on the side of the lights to fit as the aftermarket brackets were crap. But so far the light output is amazing and they look great. I’m sure they’re all made by the same person (China ).

First off, thanks for your support brother.
and you're probably right they're all made by the same company but I don't know that for sure.
But transferring the original brackets does it completely mount flush to the bumper?
I have about one finger gap between the light and the back of the bumper.
Just curious.

There is maybe 1/10 of an inch gap so it is barely noticeable from the stock lights. It made a huge difference as I too had a large gap. Even after turning the adjustment knob. It also helped them face out instead of in towards the middle of the bumper. I have a thread up called Headlight Options and I put up some photos on there. I can take more during the daytime to show the gap if you want. Another person ordered them and the stock bracket side holes are larger than the pins off the sides of the lights so his may not work. But I think it will with a rubber washer around the pins.

Here are a few of them. If you need some more just let me know or look at my thread on Headlight Options. Using the stock brackets helped a ton. The driver side has maybe 1/10 of an inch larger gap around the cutout, but you absolutely can’t tell unless you look hard. If you need any tips just reach out.

Where did you pick those up?

I found them on Amazon for under $30. Just type in your year truck, ram, and tag lights. They should pop up. Mine are the VIPMOTOZ. The pin on the rear of the lights is a bit of a pain to pull and put back in. But took maybe 15 min to install. They look a heck of a lot better than the stocks though.
