Show off YOUR aftermarket Lights
Got some LEDs put in, EVERYWHERE. All the lights on the interior, in white and yellow LEDs in the HELLA 500 off road lights behind the grill, LED head lamps, LED FOG lights, LED light bar, reverse lights, cargo lights, LED strip under the hood and i even added LED strips under the truck and in the bed that turn on automatically with the interior lights.

Nice lighting. I'm thinking of doing a bumper mounted 10" led light bar, or roof mounted curved 50", and the behind the grille lights too. My stock yellow housing headlights won't do much offroad (yea I know, time to sand and polish the housings).

Thank you! I have become my father. I remember i was 10 or 11 and he was stoked on having a LED work light and at the time i just didn't get the appeal but now im like "LED'S LED'S EVERYWHERE!"
I messed up my Hella 500 because the H1 LED bulbs didnt fit because of the massive heat sink. So i had to cut the plastic case and then i had to gorilla glue the bulb in and some glue leaked into the lenses. They are still nice and bright but it really chaps my ***

GO SOX!
I should probably wait until my interior is done. I'm upgrading the door and dome lights this weekend. And I'm slowly working on adding blue back lighting to all my gauges and buttons. For now, I have a couple Hella lights behind the grill.

[QUOTE=Vortex;5461110]What's in the bed lighting setup?
It a bendable LED light strip from O'Reillys. They have a small 10" (2 5" strips) set up for 17bucks and a large 24" (2 12" strips) setup for 32bucks. The ones in the bed have been there for 5 years so that 3M piece of tape on the back of the strip will hold just fine but if I can make a suggestion don't put it where I put it where it's facing out I would put it up under the rail of the bed so it shines down into the bed cuz sometimes all you can see is just that bright light dazzling you.

Oh man... Where do I start? I've got a rough country 30in dual row flush mounted to the front bumper along with 2 pods on each side wired into the fog lights. There are two 7in dual row bars mounted into the grill kind of hidden out of sight as well. There used to be a 52in curved bar on the roof, but the LED's were giving me fits when it would get wet, so I took it off and got the holes on the roof welded up. It produces A LOT of light. It would be nice to do the mod where I can get the fogs to come on with the brights, but as it sits now, it's ridiculous, even with the single 30".
Best picture I have, my 45 dollar cheapie phone refuses to take any sort of picture at night or pictures with lots of artificial light... So, this will have to do.

It's a Move bumper, you buy them on their website. They're surprisingly affordable if you can weld. 600 bucks if you want to weld it yourself and they're about 1200-1500 if you want it pre-welded and ready to bolt on. They use pretty thick steel, so keep in mind it is significantly heavier than the stock bumper. Putting this thing on is definitely a 3 person job.
