I looked at a few cheaper sets but I'm glad I went with the KC's. The harness is beef compared to the old cheap lights on the OEM bumper right now.

Now I'm deciding if I should order another pair. My bumper has two light tabs on the hoop for the current ones. Need to see the bumper to see if and where I can mount another set to.

I've been wanting a GoPro for some time now. I might have to splurge on one. It'd be cool as hell to put it in a similar location but face if forward.

World Industries are much better. :P

yes , but its like buried so deep, my guess is that the previous owner ran into some belt problems , cuz the space btwn that bolt and the belt is a pubic-hair gap.. lol
