Damn Cleave I had to read that 3 times before it made sense, but I agree totally.

Non -Chinese manufacturers get parts from china... Soo....

If all the non-chinese light manufacturers didn't exist, the Chinese light manufacturers wouldn't either

Incorrect, if the market for these lights did not exist then this would be true. If there is a market then a company will make a product to fit it, geography does not matter these days. I'm sure there are thousands of examples of chinese made products that have been first to market on a global scale.

Velveeta Shells and Cheese is all I have to say to that.

I have to strongly disagree. I don't know why, but I'm all about that Shoo Rite crap. That being said, I do make a homemade four cheese baked mac n' cheese that destroys all.

t_j I have only seen pictures of the totron lights, but for some reason in the pictures the optics look like seashells.

Except the Chinese manufacturers wouldn't have had a reason to develop the offroad lighting products we have today, china has no attachment to offroad racing, if there was no established market for these things chinese manufacturers would not have stepped in to get in on the profit, and even if they had, the cost of products coming out of china would be dramatically increased from what we see today as they would have had to develop them themselves

The end sections is the flood pattern optics, the center section is spot pattern. I will get a good pick of the full 40" bar later.
