Well, are these easy on and off?

Cant you run these during the day for looks and then take them off at night?

You are so-pose to take them off for night driving, they just clip on and off in a few seconds. I had them on my 2005 f150, and i loved them, thought they looked good. I would post a picture on here if i knew how.

If you look at some of his previous threads, he puts e-bay finds in general ranger discussion instead of classifieds. Also starts some of the most pointless threads ever. But, it's a public forum, I suppose he can do as he pleases

I had a set (same brand) on a 93 mustang gt & they looked nice, but you couldn't see 10' in front of you at night... luckily I had fog lights to drive by.

Yeah I know, the buds got a ton of thread. I figured I would call him out though.

I saw a ranger in town cruising with these things. Saw him get pulled over thinking maybe routine stop.
But the next day....lost the things. IMO, I think they look 80's tacky.

Touche sir lol


I've a few not-so-constructive ones but they are few and far between and they are like someone else said at least where they are supposed to be, in the Off-Topic.

Good deal lol

A buddy of mine had them on his chevy for a little while and said the light output sucks. I think on some trucks they look good but on others it just sucks.
