I like how the lights in the grill are hidden when the plow is up

I bet he only uses the lights when he is on site. I know alot of the people on here do that.

I love the lights though! Wish I did that with my truck, maybe I will if I actually make some money! I just dont like the revolving flash pattern on the trucks lightbar, but thats just me.

Thats too much , you will be seeing flashes in your sleep for a week after plowing one night. Those strobes in the grill will bounce off the plow blinding you in no time. Nice trucks.

The 2 strobe lights on the back rack are no longer there and the lights in the grille are not normally run will plowing same with rear window lights-I use those more in the summer when parked on busy roads etc

Where is a good place to buy a strobe light kit? I was looking on Ebay and found one for 8 bulbs @ 160w but thought the LED's would be better. Unfortunately I am not interested in spending $400 + on some kits because I am only doing our business lot and a couple driveways (I.E. I'm not making any money with this).
