You guys drilled through the Clutch Master Cyl. plate on the firewall to run your switches into the cab?



I just forced it through the hole where all the other wires were going through in that main firewall hole thingy.

Were you able to put the plastic closure back in behind the light?? Do you have any whistling when you are driving??

I'm curious about this...why in the heck are these things so expensive? They're LED's for pity's sake! Granted they look cool, but what exactly do they do for you that makes them worth the cheese? Yes, that's a serious question because I must be missing something. I know the headlights suck, but beyond them being replaced with HIDs I'm at a loss. Inquiring minds want to know.
I got my 32" Curved LED Bar off Amazon for $36. I also ordered a set of 4, 4" AuxBeam LED Pods that only cost $38. Then I ordered 3 MicTuning 12ft LED Light Bar Harnesses with built in relays, Inline fuses, blue LED Illuminated Rocker Switchs, quick connect plugs etc for only $18 each. Order a MicTuning 6-Curcuit Fuse Box/Distribution Block with cover for $21. I got Prime next day shipping, for free, on everything. In the end I spent $149 on all the lighting stuff and in the end, I sold it before I ever installed it. But the person I sold it too put it on his truck and the lights looked just as good as $200- $300 Light Bars and the pods looked almost as good as Rigid Industries Pods.

My point is, you can get super cheap LED Bars & Pods off of Amazon and eBay and they look and perform almost as good as the ones for $100's more.

You my friend are wrong. This man took the time to construct an awesome comparison to demonstrate why you are in fact...wrong. Now, don't get all "Hilary" on me because I said you are wrong. ;)

Front side angle (you can also see the LEDs I recently put in my hood scoops)



Where did you get the leds for your hood scoop?
