X2 Harbor fright lights are garbage. I tried them years ago, better off taping 2 flashlights to your hood

Maybe for the price.. But when you turn them on, and your headlights are already on, you can't even see a difference. Offroad lights by definition should be at least as bright as headlights right?

Didn't realize you were talking about those.

I meant these are junk:

looks pretty good! I'm afraid mine has had some many coats of silicone "armorall" like stuff used on it I'd never get the paint to stick.

Thanks!
I have a section of the console I swapped in that is the wrong color. as soon as I find a compatible gray in the plastic and vinyl paint I'll try it.

.......Be nice to me or I'll report you to the tree-hugging-enviroMENTALists for stomping slugs with your rig.......


Seriously, I just thought it was funny, you wrote it like "5lug" and as I quickly looked at it, it LOOKED like it said "Slug"..see?
