    Stopped in for my weekly consumables and they were setting up this display for new light bars/accessories.
    Wont be long before they have multiple sizes of light bars too. They have a 22, 14 and an 8"

    I have seen similar cubes at Walmart.

    My guess is that they will have condensation issues once exposed to moisture.

    I hope I'm wrong though.

    Probably great bed lights or camping area lights but not for lighting up the road while driving.

    Hopefully they will never be “submersed” or someone jumped their Tundra into a lake!

    I do have an assortment of very bright lights (in expensive), pods, bars on my website. Unfortunately I don't have the vehicle specific brackets.

    I had a cheap 30.00 behind the lower grill light bar and never had condensation, bought a Rough Country 300.00 light bar and I have condensation. Brand new 2 months old and Rough County won’t warrant it out, says its normal just loosen the screws and turn it on and dry it out. Really, I will never buy another thing from them

    Sometimes the "you get what you pay for" line isn't always true.

    Funny you say that about Rough Country. I saw a nice Tacoma with a big Rough Country sticker across the windshield and I immediately thought "that's not something you should brag about".

    To be fair I have never owned a Rough Country product, just going off what I have read on the internet, which is always true.
