ULB I do not get any glare from them when I use them offroad. But they
are also only 55 watt lights to. But I have some other ones I can put
on some 120 watt ones and tell if I get any glare. If you would like
me to do that I can do it friday or sat night? And report back to you
how it is.

That would be awesome. If you can't get around to it no problem. I
think my jeep has only had 4 washes in its life, so it is usually dust
caked from the socal desert, but still glare could be an issue. I
really like the idea of hinge mount lights, adjust left side by
myself, and passenger by well err the passenger. Gives us the
opportunity to adjust while parked or moving real slow and not having
to get out.

Here is my setup.

On our last trip I brought a big plastic bin that fits the back of the
CJ7 and used nuts and bolts and clamps and vise grips every night to
hold it together but it didn't stop him from chewing on it all freaking
night trying to get into it.

We had neighbours with a dog the first couple nights, no coons, then the
fun started.

Anything left out got a bite. They got the vinegar bottle the first
night and didn't bite too many things else in that one box.

I finally covered the big bin with pepper and bits of duct tape. glue
up, covered with pepper for a nice sticky 'hot foot' and poured
Louisiana Hot sauce around the edges to stop them chewing it. I filled
some duct tape with the sauce and put it on the corner he wanted to chew
the most. The first night this way, he got a couple hot feet and went
away Mad. Really mad from the sounds of the snarls and spits and going
ons. We found two of the duct tape pieces down by the lake next morning
and a few tracks in the pepper.

The next night they were there before dark so my wife treed one. Then
she treed the second that came along a little later. That was a fun
night, she didn't let them come out of that tree until after we went to
bed and these two coons really didn't like each other, the second one
went up the tree to start a territory fight until he realized 'he' was
now in for it too. LOL! They tried changing trees three or four times,
but they couldn't stop their scratching noises so were easy to follow.
They didn't come back that night and waited until 'after' we were in bed
after that. <grin>

Then the next night one -----footed around the edges of the box so as to
only leave one paw print, then he tried chewing. Well, the howls and
barks and snarls that came out of him when his nose got into the black
pepper and hot sauce I poured along the edge was worth the lost sleep.
My wife and I were almost pissing ourselves laughing. He tried twice,
once later or there were two equally unhappy because there were two nice
nose prints in the sauce. LOL!

The following nights, we just had the odd one try and they disliked the
pepper sauce just as much. LOL!
