    theyre not worth it dude. they would need a lot of work. 1/2 rusted. and are not water proof. i think the only good thing that still works is the light bulb them selves. but i may weld some plates on so theyre tight and put em on and in my tool box.

    ya ill be making it. it will have various points to where it will bolt to welded on tabs. the actual plate will be made out of a sheet of thick diamond plate (steel is WAYY too heavy) and since thats made out of aluminum I cant weld it to steel, plus making it a bolt on will help my work on the bottom of my engine if need be also keep the water out when i go muddin

    Should paint the plate black, and do a storm trooper helmet in white on it
