20 inch 5W Osram LED about $80 on Amazon.

Uncovered

Shining down my driveway (DUSK, not quite dark):

Headlights Only (Lariat, so factory LEDs with very nice cutoff)



Headlights + LED bar

Very nice ? ? ?

Wow, and for $80 I'd say that's a deal. How was mounting them? I haven't looked too closely on my own truck yet but are there holes or something to mount these up?

I drilled 2 holes. Single hole mounts per side (cast aluminum) pretty easy. Hardware all came with the light, including the bolts I used.

Could I get you to link to it?

It was $79 on Amazon, looks like it's now $75.55 on Amazon

but only $59 on ebay... so I choose eBay

^ Good find! I often find that Amazon is higher than other places even though people tend to assume its the cheapest.

Amazon is my go to if I need it quick. It's never been about saving money, that is for sure.

But sadly they have nearly everything and it's pretty easy to see how they are putting the brick and motar buildings out of business. Kmart, Sears, RadioShack,CircuitCity.... and on and on. Nobody can figure this out. Offer FREE 2 day shipping and you win! Even if you aren't the cheapest and charge the customer $119 a year for it.

Got this today, which is a 3d printed panel with switches and I also opted for the USB charger with Voltage readout. I'll use one of them for the LED lightbar switch.

Installation

Bought from: 2019-2022 Ford Ranger toggle mount with switches.

Well I broke it trying to put it in, Tolerances might be a little too tight. I pushed and it snapped. Love the product and the idea. this may be one of those... you get what you pay for moments.

This morning I ordered the Lightforce panel, so for now my switch will just lay there.

And lastly the lightforce switch, which looks totally factory.

I went for the lightforce panel for this exact reason, I love that it looks OEM since i find most aftermarket options to be a bit overkill (and sometimes tacky) if you only need one or two switches.

I was hesitant because of their location, but they shipped it QUICK!!! I got it very fast and as you know installation was a breeze.
