New lights went on today.

Well, right now I'm not my ecstatic self. But I want to share what I did all day. Went and filled the truck up with $60 in gas and as of right now I've burned 3/4 of what I had. Time to convert to an electric truck.... But anyways, I got my CB working again. Not sure what was wrong, but I remounted the antenna to the mount it came with and the radio decided to work. Then I went up my buddy's garage and got my new lights installed on my truck. As of tonight, only the two outside lights are wired up and working only because we had a lot going on today. This weekend I'm planning on getting the other two wired in, and then doing something else, but I forgot what it was... Anyways, onto some pics I got of them.


My buddy welding the new mounting plate on

And this is where I have my switches mounted. The blue you see is fiberglass. I'm going to smooth it completely out then paint it to match the original color as best as I can.

I'll have some pictures of the light output this weekend hopefully, once all the wiring is done and is permanently installed.
 
Yeah, wait a minute.. you had that nice ass fiberglass cover you were so pumped about. Wtf happened to that?
 
lights look good pete, good to always have a friend that knows how to weld
 
Lights look great! You shoulda mentioned you wanted to put more light on....i have like 4 full light bars...all with KC's on them and i have a moving tote full of KC's!
 
The tonneau is sitting on the side of my house waiting for vacation time. During the summer months, I need easy access to my bed for work so I would have been taking it off until I left for vacation. And i don't need the lights spread out more. They can be adjusted on their pivots. And I might throw more lights up there, but I'm not sure yet.


Yeah Mike, we're doing it this weekend.
 
They're not as bright as some of my friends surprisingly. But they are really good. I wanna go test em out off road, but with my luck I'll rip the wires off and ruin all of our hard work lol
 
Thanks guys. I love the way it looks. I just gotta shave down the sides of the bar that they're mounted to, hide the wires, and my buddy's putting actual connectors on the wires instead of splices and tape lol
