    Highly recommend American-made, Texas-made, low-profile Plashlights spreaders. They're hella bright.

    • 2 X 10W CREE® LEDs = 20W Total
    • 35° Linear Flood, 120° Scene Flood
    • Lumens: 2,600 (each light)
    • 9 ~ 36VDC
    • 1.6A @ 12VDC
    • IP69K Rated (saltwater-safe too)
    • 316 Stainless Steel Hardware
    Affordable too.

    Diode Dynamics is made in USA, based out of St Louis. Not really sure the argument is relevant.

    “Most of our products are designed and/or assembled in the USA and we back everything we manufacture with a lifetime warranty.” :notsure:

    The Rago ditch light brackets are nice. Appreciate the little zip tie holes they put on them to clean up your wiring.

    Can you guarantee any automotive lighting company uses 100% American made items? Surely everyone has to buy inventory from overseas.

    Think I'll probably get the white SSC2 pro combos from @memario1214 and the rago brackets.

    Last question: would the amber lens covers on white lights do a decent job changing the light color or are they more for just protection?

    It won't be perfect, but the amber covers are an effective color changer. They'll be a little cooler temp than the true selective yellow, but they're "OK" IMO.

    Ordered Tuesday, delivered Saturday. Can't beat that service. Just waiting for it to get above 20* outside so I can install everything.
