Using the search feature usually makes it worth it.

Sorry for overreacting. I forgot that I used to say stupid ***** like that when I was 16.
And yes, I do have a vag. She's waiting for me in bed right now.
Where's yours? ;-)

The answer is yes Rigid is worth it. They are in my opinion the only LED light bar to get. I just put a 30" E Series and 2 set of Dually's on my Raptor. You have to pay to play.

I did not buy them to use in the city. I will say if anyone lit me up with a set of these I may unload a couple of clips at them. Honestly...they are not safe in the city. Mine is rated to read a newspaper at one mile. It's blinding in the daytime. you could honestly cause a major wreck at night...It messes with your eyes for a while.

Not even kidding...If I was a cop I would take you to jail. If you are an off road 4x4 guy or live in the country then I can see a need for a LED light bar...otherwise it a lot of coin to spend.

LED's do better without obstruction....they get their distance and brightness thru optics. I would have them out front if you want distance. The single row Rigid optima (I believe) is crazy bright. you need to specify a combo pattern or a spot pattern. These things are high tech. way cool.

I have the 30 rigid led light bar coming and should have it next week. I'm going to install it behind my billet grille.. I'll take some pics and let you know how it works out!

Your going to freak.....It's bright....After all the crap I posted about responsible ownership of these things, last night on the way home from dinner, some douche canoe kid was driving with his bright lights on..I flashed my high beams and he turned his brights off...All was good in central FLA I thought, then for some reason he felt compelled to turn then back on along with his tuner fog lights in the bumper....before I could say what a pin head, my wife reached over and hit the "Meet Ray Charles Switch". I wish I had a video...his 18 year old eyes were like pie plates..

My wife and I had a discussion about doing that again.....All I could think about was this guy coming over into my lane for a head on... We were on a two lane...
