Clay sells them for less and could probably put you in contact with someone that already has one installed.

I have the Recon White Lightning light bar and has worked flawlessly for over 2 years through all conditions. Definitely a nice product.

Have any pictures? I seen a truck a couple months ago with these lights under the gate. I liked it. But after looking at mine it don't appear there is enough gap between the bumper and gate to even see them once installed. Like only 1" or less with the plastic lip. Also, Is it a problem if I was to carry compost or mulch? The debri will fall down that gate crack and sit right on the light?

I installed lights in the gap between the bumper and tailgate that is centered over the tailgate. I haven't had any problems with them getting whacked with junk that falls from the bed. I'll have to post up a picture later.
