Awesome garage!!
I was hoping to make it then did an evil thing ( 😂 ) ... committed to working Tuesday morning. I live in Charlottesville and not a fan of driving back at night. Going to have to figure something out as I too really want to meet more people in the community!
Cheers Donna

Haaaa! I wish that was my garage! That was the shoppe that did the vinyl roof for me. I'm still struggling - we moved from a 4 car to a 2 car garage! Paying to store my toys is killing me!!!!

Love Charlottesville! We almost moved there a few years ago to work at FEI.

Look forward to meeting at another event, perhaps! ~skip

What time on the 16th? Would love to swing by and make acquaintances. I’m 10 minutes away in Oakton.

Who is installing it? I did mine at home in about two hours.

Nice! My Father in law has a big farm in Amissville and my son was living in Marshall but moved last year to Gainesville so we get out that way regularly. It would be nice to be able to use the factory fog lights without being in off-road or wading mode. I think I am going to put an owl flat earth 3/4 roof rack and add side lights.

Just remember they aren't fog lights, nor are they anything close to a street legal beam pattern (even for high beams).

It is pretty easy to rewire them to EXT1 or EXT5

Bummer, sorry to hear that! Is it a lack of time on their end or are they running into issues? That should be a very straightforward and quick install

Both.
Yesterday's "excuse" was they were putting final touches on welding the lightbar bracket. I didn't have the optioned pre-wired console and they did indicate that they had to drop the headliner to do some of the wiring for the sidelighting. All that, coupled with, they are a really busy shop and likely overextended themselves for customer projects before Christmas. One thing I do know about the group - when its done, it will look right and be right. Their reputation is pretty strong here in the DMV. Much stronger than my patience.

IG back in my stable - though I have to reorder a Rhino bracket. Not happy with the one the shop fabricated. Lighting is installed but the bracket looks crappy.

Headed to Katie's Cars & Coffee Saturday morning if anyone is planning to attend.
