I've heard good things about rigid. If had money coming out of my *** I'd get this (the roof mounted light bar)

Note: That bar is around 16,000 lumens!

Your truck turned out awesome! I've always wondered how one of those LED bars would look on a bull bar. And have you thought about taking off those running boards for a set of Go-Rhino or N-Fab nerf bars like this??
I think they'd match up really good with your bull bar.

I just did a search on PIAA 520 issues. Seems the bulbs burning out are very common. Several posts on other forums about the bulbs lasting only 2 months.
One guy said he only uses them on the highway to avoid overheating issues. Really? Others said it is a vibration issue. Either way, they are going. Averaging 6 sets a year, that's about $360 worth of bulbs. Not real happy with PIAA.
My (hopefully) new Rigid bar estimates 50,000 hours of life compared to about 10 hours with the PIAA's. I think it will outlast the truck.
