It was the one they had for $20. I want to say it's rated for like 400 watts maybe.

Going well! That was a tough hit on the hatch! I've found it fairly difficult to dent the jeep but wow haha. Love the simplicity of the suspension/wheel/tire setup too!

Thanks! Yea that sent wasn't pretty. Gets fixed on Thursday. I guess that's the first time I've been able to dent it. Go big or go home, right?

Finally some updates! First, got the jeep fixed from hitting a tree. Only cost $450 total. Then got a rear seat cover and a temp/date/clock thing. Got a set of lights for the front seat foot wells. And finally relocated the 31 inch spare tire to the factory spot.

For anyone wondering how the light bar stays how it is and doesn't tilt, I tightened the crap out of it, and it's got a large but as a spacer on one side.
