Hi, how's that 392 doing? Where did you get that Squatch edition badge? My grandson would love that on my Jeep. Oh have you been to that Bigfoot Museum in Blue Ridge, Ga? Only 1.5 hour drive from Chat.
That Squatch badge is on @thegame81 ‘s 392.
I haven’t been to the Bigfoot Museum. I had no idea there was such a thing. But now I’m very intrigued! I will have to check that out. Blue Ridge is beautiful.

Finished my air chuck relocation project tonight.
With thanks to #arbusa for being nice enough to take pity on me when I stripped the threads on the elbow connector (my error as I was tired and trying to rush an “easy” job - for love or money I couldn’t find anyone able to ship one to Canada) and send me a new one as a gesture of goodwill warranty.
The ARB dual compressor is now powered on by Auxiliary 1 and the LED lights only when it’s powered up.

Just ordered these myself!

where did you wire your power? Do they work when it’s day time and night time?
I did it as per the install video on their site. After the 3 lights are fastened in the grill and the wire harness partially routed, I then split the red and black wires off. Red wire was routed and tapped into the passenger side turn signal wire and the black wire was routed and secured to a ground post screw near the battery. I crimped a ring terminal at the end of the black wire prior to securing it to the ground post.

I leave my lights on the "auto" setting and live in Canada so we have mandatory DRL's. The pre-runner lights come on by themselves when the headlights do (when it starts to get dark).

If you change your lights to the "running lights only" setting and/or the "headlights" setting I think that forces the pre-runner lights on.

I believe you can wire them to be on whenever the ignition is on. I'm not an electrical guy though!

YMMV.

Overland Outfitters Rollbar buddy installed. Intended to use it as a sunglasses holder plus misc items but it’s a very rough texture, I feel will scratch my sun glasses. I usually wouldn’t mind but took the forums advice and went with Maui Jim’s and they’re not cheap to say the least.

Today I installed the @ORACLElights pre-runner style lights (new 2022 version). I love the look!

Last week I installed the Mopar CHMSL (third brake light relocation) and prefer this over stock. I also installed the @ORACLElights rear bumper reverse lights which take the place of the stock red reflectors.

Here's a photo with the reverse lights on (stock and aftermarket). When reversing in total darkness the light output is noticeably multiple times better than stock alone. When looking out the back window the area is very well lit. When looking using the rear camera the screen shows full colour and detail rather than being grainy and dark as it appears with stock reverse lights only.
Looks great. So glad they finally have a version that works on trail camera equipped Jeeps. How difficult was it to get to the passenger side turn signal. The install video says you need to remove a fender clip. Is the clip reusable or do you have to buy a new one? (I’ve had a bad experience with those fender clips … and they are wayyyy overpriced.). Did you go with the clear or tinted lenses? Any pros or cons with one or the other? I like the idea of the tinted lense to keep things stealth, but worry about the lights not being as bright.

Installed a Tuffy Security Deck Enclosure. Totally met my expectation; poorly packaged and arrived scratched. But, I stumbled across it for $397.

Alright you've convinced me lol.

Not being smart, just curious, is this brand good and why? Thanks!
They are almost double the price of Ray Bans but I had never heard of them before this forum. Tried them on and they feel like they're floating on your face. My biggest gripe with glasses are how annoying they feel on the bridge of my nose but any version of Maui Jims i tried are so comfortable. Also they are known to have one of the best lens clarity.
