    I knew a guy who was always up and sound proofed a work shop in his house so good that he could use a circular saw, compressor, or whatever and you couldn't hear him goin' to town on stuff. I can only imagine what kind of trouble I'll get in if I ever have room to sprawl out in.

                    So...there was a thread on pirate about stupid cheap hid's at harbor freight. So i did some calling around and it was legit...if you could find any still in stock. They have been discontinued. Original price: $125. Price i paid: $17, a piece. And i have 2 as spares since they are from harbor freight. So i dont care how ghey they look, they are stupid bright, and cheap lol. And dont worry, the chrome grill thing will be coming off and it will all be flat black when they are finish mounted. FYI, part number 59059.
                    o and apparently it was time for some bolt tightening...winch and bumper bolts all took a turn or two to get right. kinda scary.

                      Dang, I should have paid more attention for some of those! That was a heck of a deal, and I think they look pretty stinkin good too, they will look better black for sure though! Nice score! Will need pics of light output asap!
