I swapped out the front low beam, high beam and fog light bulbs to LED. I also did the rear reverse light bulbs in the tail lights and the license plate bulbs. Here are the pics of them at night:

Do you have this updated on the other forum? What headlight bulbs did you buy and do you think they are a worthy upgrade?

I have a Springfield EMP and a S&W Bodyguard that are my daily carrys, but that XDS looks super sweet!

I haven't shot 22 in a long time (year or so) since the ammo is so hard to find .

I added a Noco Genius Port Plug to the front of the Dodge so it would be easier to find the block heater plug (not for Vegas, I'm moving to DC next year).

On Amazon
Amazon.com: NOCO Genius GCP1 Black 13 Amp 125V AC Port Plug: Automotive Amazon.com: NOCO Genius GCP1 Black 13 Amp 125V AC Port Plug: Automotive





As you can see, I should have tried a little harder to find center. I ended up having to trim the plug housing a little bit in order to get it flush. You also have to orient the plug at an angle like that b/c there is a cross member behind the bumper that will rub against the chord and I didn't want that.

Christmas Decorations

New Inflatable




Maybe a night photo later.

203 watts of power used for the decorations and that's due to the inflatables. LED lights sure are nice.

I did post this on the fiat forum.

Bought the low beam/high beam/fog/reverse and plate lights from https://www.facebook.com/TALcorp8/.

I'll let you know what I think as far as if it's worth it after I've had them a while. So far so good

I will say so far the light bar on the front has been "ok". It will not be a long term solution. The rigids I had on the front of the Ford (that are now on the back of the Ram) seemed to project further. I may swap out this light bar with a Rigid when I can afford it. This could very well be me...it's nice and bright, but I was expecting MORE

P.S. Nice job on the block heater plug. I like it.

Steve, I have retired my .22lr weapons. Merely decorations and nostalgic reminders now.

I realized that this would be the outcome when I saw then asking $70 for a brick at the gun show. Prices will never come back down.

Yep... .22LR isn't the deal it used to be - that is for sure...

Dim Sum - I sorta what to do that plug for the F350 too. seems so sloppy to just have a cord hanging... Surprised you really need to pug in, in DC... I second Roy's parking lot comment. Get ready - and get ready for the HOV 3 entire highways as well. Or just take the train in.

Andre - I think the lights are great.

My experience has been:
Gun shows......Ammo is High.
500 rnd box high velocity Federal........$29 - $37
