i dont feel like i would need anything like that tho, not really many places to use them as i think about it, even when i had the hellas on i think i used them 2 times, also need to order some lense covers if i keep the duallys on the windsheild

they are deffinitly nice lights, i am however still not as happy as i think i should be with them, they are bright but not what i would have thought they would be like after seeing the headlight shoot out and other pics of them on at night, also they do have a slight flicker which i notice and is starting to bug me, most people say its only while idleing but i think i see it while driving as well. I just dont want to spend the $160 it costs at rallylights.com for the harness.

Sounds great. Can't wait to see picture of it. I'm shopping for new tires, stuck between the nitto trail grappler M/T and the the Toyo M/T.

nittos ended up being slightly cheaper, and my guy said they would last longer so thats what i went with, we will have to hit up rausch again once i have my lift and tires on
