When buy parts does it matter to you who is the "Poster Child" of the company? Guess what im asking is How important is marketing to you?what
Say you are in the market for something like an off*Road light and*BJ Baldwin was to switch from Rigid to KC, would you reconsider what light to buy based on who they sponsor?

While I do want a tested product, I buy what meets the specs I am looking for. But having the items actually tested and proven is very important. So as bar as having them on a Baja truck that matters, the person driving it not so much

Nope. It's about what I need and which company best represents that at a price suitable for my budget.

I prefer to support small businesses that utilize little to no advertising. For my parts and fabrication needs, nothing beats a knowledgeable sales staff with quality products and excellent customer service. I am a loyal customer to the shops that I know and trust.

I could care less about who the company pays to use their product. Price/budget is maybe the biggest factor. I'm not willing to pay thousands for the top of the line LED lights when I can get a very good alternative no name light for hundreds. I'm a weekend warrior not a hard-core pro offroader.
