Couldnt find the vendor, if it exists lol.

On lights still, would these housings:

7"x6" Diamond Cut Black Housing H6054 Sealed Replacement White LED Headlight Lamps : Amazon.com : Automotive 7"x6" Diamond Cut Black Housing H6054 Sealed Replacement White LED Headlight Lamps : Amazon.com : Automotive

Still scatter a lot of light if i used an h4 bulb instead of the hid bulbs

I like the leds (dont judge me) but i dont see anything thats h4 with led lights. I could get over the leds and buy some plain clear ones i guess...



EDIT:

Screw it im getting these lol


AutoPal DOT H6054 7x6 Inch 200mm Headlights Pair Uses H4 Bulbs Non-Sealed H6014/H6052/H6054 : Amazon.com : Automotive AutoPal DOT H6054 7x6 Inch 200mm Headlights Pair Uses H4 Bulbs Non-Sealed H6014/H6052/H6054 : Amazon.com : Automotive

Alright if I don't want a full size spare, can I get a bigger tire for my "half" spare to match new 30" tires?

nope.

And for an SUV, especially one that sees off-road duty, you need a full size spare

My registration says station wagon, do I still need it? Lol

Nah, I want a full size anyways, I just really want it to match. I got icons and I'm going to 30s. I guess I'll get a 30x9.5 for one of my eccos.

Thanks guys, had to get 8.8s for the sake of moving it out of the barn, I won't drive it on the road with those.

Same here. They are tight when first installed. On the back of the socket where the harnesses wires connect to the socket. Those pins are the one that come loose

Thanks. Just from the dang little I do know about 4WD's, I suspected that the donut spare was crap and would screw something up if you actually, y'know, used it.

...but you don't need the same tread pattern on the spare, right? Just so long as I get another 235x75R15 I'll be good? That won't necessarily screw something up, on- or off- road? (I don't really rotate ...yeah yeah, I know: but I haven't rotated since just after radials came out - I do remember that far back, heh - and I haven't ever noticed I've "used up" tire sets quicker any more than my usual lol. Plus I'm even lazier now then when I was a shiftless teenager!)

I got a 5th Canyon when I bought the set on C/L a few months, so I even have a matching rim, woot.

tread pattern doesn't have to match. They just have to be the same diameter.

You thread the end into the bottom of the antenna...

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you don't have this adapter piece.
