Installed a winch & Rigid radiance LED's in my wife @TankGirl @ROAM Pioneer front bumper. I ordered the radiance lights with amber lighting so I could run a secondary blinker with the backlights :like:

Also installed a Trigger 6 Shooter on my JL and messed around with the strobe feature

So your Trigger is working. Any flaws yet with the bluetooth or remote? I've read so many negative reviews, but want it.

Did the thread tape come installed from UPR or did you put it on? Mine came with pink thread sealer. And mine came with the inside filter backwards, the lower part with the steel wool was on the clean (driver) side.
Mine came with the pink thread sealer too, but I will have to look tomorrow to see which side the steel wool is on.

Just ask @cosine he knows!
How's the light output and cutoff on those?
Light output is good, cutoff isn't razor sharp like my Infiniti projectors but decent from what I can tell without adjusting them yet.

No flaws with the operation of the unit yet. I did have some issues with the JL switch mounting pod, but ended up making it work. I'm also not thrilled with the LED backlighting on the switches. From the driver seat some rocker lights look brighter than others making it difficult to determine if an accessory is on or off.

I swapped out my Rancho springs for Mopar springs and installed Metalcloak rear upper control arms. Took it out to make sure everything was working right

Looks good,. Curious why you’d swap out the Rancho springs for the Mopar springs. I’m considering the a Rancho 2” lift.

I have the trigger 4 and I agree. The operation works great but the switch panel sucks. It should have more overall lighting and a lot better individual switch lighting. I do like being able to control them with my phone though. Have you downloaded the trigger app? A lot more adjustability through it. Constant or momentary, brightness, and strobe.

Installed new front bumper this weekend... for the most part. Missing some hardware that should come in today so I can finish it up.

Are your rims offset or do you have spacers?


Installed LOD sliders. Simple install, had to loosen one body bolt to slide the big washer over a little.

These things were package well. Plastic wrapped, cardboard reinforcement, and spray foam to fill the voids.

I wired up a 4-pin trailer connector. It was a Curt kit ($65 - ebay) that works with the LED lights. Pair that with a free receiver I got and it turns out to be a pretty cheap upgrade.

In hindsight, I kinda wish my JL came with the towing/aux switches, but oh well.
Can you pass me the link to purchase this trailer connector kit? I have looked online and some say they're not compatible with the LED package. Also do you have a video on the install?
