:rofl:Nice 1 Costly,love the engine bay. seems it has the right name too:goodjob:
Costly, sick ute mate , fkn luv it
Costley, that ute of yours is off the hook!!
As many of you ute owners know, it can get very dark in the tub at night. I hooked up a few LEDs used in boats (waterproof, shockproof) to give more light.
They are there for a practical reason, not for show.
Makes it a lot easier when unloading when you go away and theres no lights around.

^ VS SS ute!! Don't see too many of them getting around.. nice one dude!
Great idea J_VZ. Much better than other ones I have seen, looks like you have the lighting power of a small city in the back there. How many LED's are there in the tub?
