Rock Lights

[Jake Wilson]

Ok Gals and Gents,

I will be grabbing some $20 Wal-Mart lights to throw on for rock lights. However, I do not really know of a good place to put them so they wont get hit by my tires or rocks. So that being said where have you guys mounted yours? Also where did you route your wires through on the rear?

Mahalo,

Jake

You need to mount them higher than what Eddie shows in his write-up or they will get hit. Ask me how I know.

I ran my rear along the frame to the front.

I bought these on Amazon. I simply just cut a few small pieces of sheet metal, drilled a hole for the led, and used double sided 3m adhesive tape, painted the sheet metal and bent it in correct spot for led. I soldered wires to 14g wire that goes to spod.

I got the underglow Rock lights I believe and it looks great and all but most of mine are starting to blow out. I'd say don't bother but maybe I just had bad luck with it.

Do you have a pic of where you installed them? Thanks for the feed back!

Cheapo eBay led pods here. 12 of them if I remember correctly, been awhile since I installed them. Daisy chained them around the frame and wired them to a switch in the cab.

I also used some cheap Amazon lights. I used 7 of them. 2 in the front 2 on each side & one in the rear. I haven't had any problems with getting snagged by a rock yet. I did have to move the front 2 lights up to keep my tire from rubbing them at full flex.

Thanks guys!

I too hit mine on the front but I did figure out I should of turned the mount the other way so I replaced them that way and havent had a problem yet. I also mounted the rear on a hole near the rear upper shock mounts.

I have a pair of Rigid Sr-m with a diffused lens in front... I use them all the time.

I don't have anything in the back, but these work great for what I need...

 

[Jake Wilson]

Yea that's what I was looking for. I'll pick up some cheap lights once I order my Lpod
