I MIGHT have a spare pair for you Andrew.
I was thinking I could mount 2 on the front bumper. Might even slap them on my chrome bumper for now & then mount them permantly when I get around to building a real front bumper. Then hang a single upside down from the roll bar pointed backwards. First thing is I need to un-chrome them & buy some new rubber lense seals.

Pointing them backwards could be pretty Sweet. Especially if you have tailgaters,.
It can sometimes be a pain strapping the cooler back down after retrieving a cold beverage at night. Could also prevent extreme disappointment if somebody else has cans of piss in your cooler & you mistakenly grab one because it is too dark to read the can.
I guess it would also help if you needed a tool or strap out of the back?

You might want to replace the rear facing bulbs with something a little lower wattage.. same housing, just lower wattage so its easier to see up close. IIRC those Daylighters are 130 watt bulbs or something like that. Maybe some 35-55 watt bulbs might be a little easier to use. Not to mention easier on the battery and if you should accidentally touch the housing on one. I used to have 4 of them on my rollbar (old school style) and I had the smiley face covers... I've melted the covers before. Know what I mean Vern?

they have some lower because those claer covers I have are rated for a much lower wattage light.

I just sent them an email asking for lense seals & lower wattage bulb options.

I refuse to advertise for Pro-comp (4wheel parts) on the front of my truck.

Not a bad plan my friend. Not bad at all.
