To chicken light, or not

I just have some 4” round lights up under the truck and a few rock lights off a Jeep on mine, still get the amber glow but I can do it in 6-8 lights instead of 30

 

If you are a "buy the cheapest, do zero maintenance, run it til it
quits, than buy another one" operator than lights are a waste.

If you are a buy the "best, keep up the maintenance, run the truck for years"
operator than I think some tastefully installed lights can look good.

For me personally I like seeing clean O/O trucks with lights, etc. In today's
world of mega carrier/junk trucks that NOBODY feels good about it is refreshing
to see a truck that the owner/driver obviously feels good about. I do also agree that
if the lights aren't done right than leave them off.

 

@JonJon78 Where'd you get the lights in the bumper at? Ive been looking for some for my w9..

 

I had all the lights/aftermarket stuff done from where I bought the truck... Rush Peterbilt Tulsa, Oklahoma.

 

Didnt you have a yellow freightliner or was that someone else?

 

yea I sold it a purchased a w9 glider back in October

 

I like that shrink tube stuff. Makes tape obsolete.

 

Yep! I use uninsulated butt connectors and glue lined heat shrink. It’s even better then the expensive all in one connectors because you can get a better crimp and not worry about piercing the heatshrink, defeating the whole purpose.

 

Maybe not. But when you blow past that slow ### Swift all the poor guy see’s is a streak of lights, they paid for themselves!
