:lol: I was gonna install two lights but I dropped one and it broke. Can't wait for someone to try and tailgate me one of these nights! :twisted:

is that a bad sign that one broke when you dropped it??

awesome build. no huge budgets or crazy performance parts, just using what you have and making a bug rock.....it looks good man.

Thanks! :D The lights were a gift from Steve so no money involved on my side. They are Pro Comp brand and made of plastic. Just happened to hit the driveway at just the right angle to put a hole in one corner and crack across the lens. Still works just didn't have any silicone handy to seal it. Turns out one was bright enough anyhow.

Just installed my $10.00 swap meet side bars. SICK!

Used a large fender washer for upper support

if i were you i would support the inside somehow with your roll cage. otherwise a good bump to the side bar or someone standing on it and whamo, damage to quarter panel.
