These would seem to be out of the way and also functional...are they hard to install? Or do they fail often?

i see a lot of the cool jeeps on youtube with them. I’m just trying to restrict future mods to replacing broken things with stronger versions though so no knuckle lights for me :/

Do they come with the latest angry grill?
Just RGB rock lights and an RGB whip antenna. All from an Amazon company that just threw random letters together, of course.

I'm often occupied, by many things, often at the same time
They are all but worthless, no ifs, and or buts about it...meaning they are not all but worthless, they are worthless.

I can't believe how many answers there are searching for a question. Does money burn holes in people's pockets?

What's the connection? Inform me.
RGB rock lights, RGB whip antennas, knuckle lights, and angry grills all go hand in hand with the off road underglow crowd.

I have them on my TJ. I just installed them a couple months ago after having the brackets in the garage for 3 years. They are …eh. At best. Much more useful than an angry grill but not all that great when turning. I mean, it’s cool and all and I do rock crawling frequently. I guess my in depth review is simply …eh.

I bought mine from Gatekeeper like three years ago. They finally came out with a cheaper light so I just put them on. I feel ya. No rush, its cool but not much more than that.

Yeah, pretty much. My biggest fear and why I waited so long is I have had more than a few large rocks get caught in the tire and work their way around the axle and I think that will be the end of this program. But until then, lets party.
