    Thank you Steve for making these videos. You LITERALLY saved me thousands,since I started watching them almost 2 years ago.

    Thank you for the feedback and doing this video man! Hope you enjoy the product!
    For those of us who get out on night runs in the desert with these trucks, the extra light is a huge bonus.
    For those seeking something a little softer or different, KC makes these lights in many different lens colors.

      That light is sick! I hope you make and sell more than 50 units. I have a few mechanical items to tune up before I can drop 250 on a dome light.

    I’ll definitely be saving for this, alot of complaints about the price but im all for investing in good, quality products in hopes i’ll never have to replace it for the rest of the trucks life, great vid!

    Nice dome light. My personal taste would be for a silver finish or bare polished aluminum, though. Wouldn’t take or cost much to hit it with a spray bomb of your colour choice, though. 👍🏻

    Nice video Steve! I wonder have you ever heard of anybody installing an aftermarket grab handle/bar on an obs ford? Been looking around for such a thing to make getting in the truck smoother for my lady.

    As an alternative you can use a 97-03 Ford F-150/ Mustang Dome Light. Usually around $30 off EBay. Get one that has the 3 wire harness still attached. It will make installation easier. Put one in my 88 bronco. Looks and works better than the original. Suggest swapping the 3 bulbs in it to LEDs.

      As I’ve said in other comments, it is extremely well made in the USA by a local business. It’s much brighter than any of the stock dome lights.

    Any issues with transmission. I know some guys say not to switch out too many lights to LED if you have an auto transmission due to tranny issues without resistor on led lights

      ​@SteveStoltz a WRGB LED w/ or w/o a micro controller would be sweet and fairly easy.
      The housing is cool, but $250 is way out of my price range. My OBS isn't destined for a car show.
      I get why it costs so much, just not something I can justify for me.

    Aside from the lightt being overpriced (for those having to pay for ours), the change-out loses important control, as the old light effectively let you light one side or both. With LED, you certainly should be getting a three-level switch to allow for different needs. Many people need to use the cab light while driving for some passengener need, but not creating glare for the driver.
    Sorry, but this mod is one of the very few that fix a problem we don't have. Anything lost on the floor can be instantly seen with the cell phone light.

    • @TheMinuteMasters
      @TheMinuteMasters  3 місяці тому +1

      You make some valid points Jason. I guess I didn’t rank those as higher priorities over brightness. The map readers on my old light didn’t function and the opium den level of light had me searching my truck and work office for my black sunglasses. I only found them one an employed the use of a flashlight. So I’d say this is a classic video example for to each his own. You might find the gas cap holder more to your liking though.👌
