Just wanted to draft this up now that I’ve got the Cali Raised 32" Dual Row 5D Optic OSRAM light bar installed in my Stealth Bumper. The fit was perfect, brackets lined up exactly where they should and it sits clean and flush behind the bumper opening. Couldn’t ask for a better match. I wired it into the factory aux switches and it works flawlessly. Everything powers up smooth and it’s nice having it tied into the truck without adding any extra switches. If you want to see how I did it, here’s my post on wiring to the factory aux setup: Factory Aux Switch Write-Up The light output is wild. It throws a ton of light down the road while still spreading wide enough to cover everything in front of the truck. This will quite literally turn night to day.

I’ve been considering getting this CarPlay AI Box for my display screen after I heard it lets you watch YouTube and Netflix while driving.

It sounds great for long trips because it comes with wireless streaming and Android support too. I've checked the prices, and they range from $99 to $24, given some companies offer discounts.

What's holding me back is the fact that it might be a distraction for the person driving. One might get carried away for a split second, and something crazy might just happen on the road.

Others might not consider this factor, but I do. It would surely influence my decision whenever I'm about to make up my mind. Has anyone used it yet? Any advice?
