They are for Jeep Libertys i think, but a buddy of mine put them on his s10 and they are pretty good. You have to figure out precisely which angle and have the pivot joints and everything. _____________________________ My theory is that every disrict in the USA tries to send their lying scumbags to either prison or Washington D.C. -rivereye (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 4
