rich glad to hear you ran into larry, i wonder sometimes if he is lurking somewhere..
alan i hope the paint matches the rest of the truck so you can get it done and move on to bigger and better things...
another day of no ford truck progress.. not that it matters that much anyway, i dont get paid enough to worry about it..
chip.. are those led lights any brighter than regular florescent lights?

The lights fit right into a four foot t5,t8 or t12 fixture and have magnets so there is no screws, just stick them in place and go. The lights have 120 degree dispersion and 5000K light output. They're 35.00 per light.
Not much going on here today. It's take Mom on her errands day. Tomorrow I hope to get the other e-brake cable in on the truck but that's about it. I swear I'm not starting anything new on the vehicles unless I have no choice. I've been thrashing on vehicles most of the weekend for the last couple of weeks and I'm just a little weary of it.

Rich Nice to see you and Penny also. Glad your mom is doing ok. RC I am usually lurking around at least every couple days. Gotta be sure you youngsters are still keeping busy, while I am happy retired and doing nothing.

Just let me know you all. I liked them enough I started replacing my lights in my shop as they failed. I've got a few eight footers to fail and then I'll have all LED on the main switch.
