I wonder if that style is actually in the supply chain, or if GP saw that this truck had potential to sell high and decided that it needed some new headlights to help sell it even higher?

Prices seem to be trending downward.
I am thankful for this. It is making some parts harder to find/more expensive, though.

Nice HMMWV, jackson. I'm a big fan of the Amtech tops and would like to get one some day.

If you still have room in the driveway there is no reason to stop and if you run out of room a 40' parking spot at a self storage yard will hold several more... Just sayin

Looks like a good buy, I have been looking for a helmet top, but pulled the trigger on a soft top during the auction on the 12th, there is always next time.

Congrats

Military does use the speaker lights. Seems that is the next style they use after the original led truck lites. Mine came with a set on them.

Dash switch is probably for convoy amber strobe. Many of the amtech top trucks have a unit installed light.
