Yeah, well I would like to have lights back ontop the truck somewhere.

I just don't know about the rollbar. I took it out of my truck a long time ago, and I may not put the bed back on at all. I was thinking flatbed. My girlfriends cousin runs a pretty nice flatbed on his Toyota, I was thinking of making the same thing, only bigger.

Built this a while back
Built this out of 2" .125 wall tube, bent it up myself at work, and a friend welded it up for me. It has a receiver hitch behind the license plate.

Does the license plate screw on, or do you have some way of removing it quickly.

I welded on a spring loaded hinged plate holder from a chevy impala, so it just flips down then springs back.

The bracket cost me like $5 at a wrecking yard. It was on a car with the gas fill behind the plate, works great!

So apparently you didn't remember that I custom made them, so I got you the definition of custom made

Main Entry: cus·tom–made
Pronunciation: \ˈkəs-tə(m)-ˈmād\
Function: adjective
made to individual specifications

Ha ha, I can make them shorter, I just wanted mine to be big and obnoxious like the rest of the truck
