Just wondering about the $ to make the switch..

Well, I'm ordering them tomorrow, and hopefully I will get them by the end of the week.

I'm getting Motive 4.10's. I think they are 154 and 22 for shipping ringing it up to 176.

I've got a friend who owns a 40 year old performance shop. He's going to install them for a measely $100. Not bad... $276 for a gear swap. I note most around here get it done for like $500+.

Haven't done any performance mods yet, but I am still ecstatic about the Line-X I had installed 2 years ago. Looks as good as new despite a major home renovation and other big projects.

I agree, the most satisfying mod was recieving the Title after paying it off!

But without question my lightbar was the best mod ever. No matter where I am, everyone knows it's me!
