It is a ramsey rep 6000 remanufactured 24 volt. For the toe hooks I just used the bolts that held the hooks in before.

Here are a couple pics of my attempt at roughly copying Jeep 12 lights. Not perfect but they are close enough. Also found a set of half doors with Sahara Green door panels and pockets. Have a new soft top, Just need assembly now.

They worked out well! Been racking my brain trying to decide how I wanted to go about doing those. That and car trim vs. corrugated drainage pipe around the base.
