I'm a little confused on this...is this a type of off-road light? The box seems to picture what looks line an SUV or Jeep style vehicle (seems to be the spare on the back end). In some jurisdictions, might you not also run into laws on the kinds of lights allowed to be on/used on a vehicle (due to blinding other drivers)?

Only if you also add a coal-rolling ECU mod to spew black smoke. I assume you already have rear bumper *********?

Default what do I think?

"New mods thought??"

Since you asked, I don't like it. It is going to look tacky.

From the looks of the accessory you'll have plenty of light. For what I'm not sure... GOOD LUCK with the install...

My thoughts are please don’t. They are horribly obnoxious for oncoming traffic. If you live out in the country and need it, sure, but if you’re a city dweller it’s pretty unnecessary.

Let us know how you wire it up. Going to tap into headlights so it comes on at the same time? Or with DRL's? Assuming those circuits can handle the additional amps. Or a completely separate circuit with a switch in the cabin?
