  • This is my long term review of the updated design on/off style Cab Over America wireless cab lights. Find out if they’re worth it, and if the new design fixes the issues people complained about. Spoiler alert they are and they do!

    Great review!! I’m looking into getting these for my 2013 mega cab.

    Definitely getting these. I spent $60k on my truck and the only thing I hate is didn’t come with cab lights. I looked into having them installed. Close to $2000 to have them done right. I love how everyone is freaking out over $400. I guess you could get some duct tape and stick on some harbor freight hazard lights to ur roof 🤪

    I'm definitely going to get a set soon. Just this weekend I built my front end up based on your videos, used all the same parts and it's like I've got a new truck. Love the videos, they're extremely helpful and full of knowledge.

    Just ordered a set of these based off of your review. Customer service was great and I can’t wait to get them installed. Thanks for the review!

    Great review with all pros and cons. 👍 Definitely, the perfect way to add cab lights without drilling. Create these cab lights any wind noise at higher speed (75 mph and beyond)?

    Another great Review!- I have had these for a couple of months now and I believe was one of the first to receive the updated "on/off" version. Just wanted to share my experience regarding run time. First, and most importantly, these need to be charged in direct sunlight for at least 30 total hours over a few days to ensure a full charge.---- While I was on vacation, I came home around 11pm one night and forgot to turn the cab lights off......Around 10 a.m. the next morning, I came out to the truck and the lights were still on and just as bright as they were the night before!!!--- 12 hours of continuous light!!!! I did share this with Cab Over America and I learned that to the best of their knowledge, the "record" so far is 22 straight hours off a full charge.

    I love your channel and your photography skills are at a high level. I am going to pick up a 96 F250 tomorrow and if the deal goes through I will buy these lights. I can't believe everyone saying $400 is too much - my gosh an iPhone goes for $1,200. This is a great product. Great video, keep your channel coming. Unfortunately may F-250 will be a 7.5L Gasser but still an OBS. I figure a gasser will be easier to maintain.

    I really do like what I see. I just don't want another FOB in my pocket. If they made a module for the OEM light switch I'm all in!

    Great video. Thanks for the update. I’m putting these on my First Gen after paint. I’m like you, no way I’m putting holes in a perfectly good roof.

    The only reason why I have not bought these lights, is for that exact reason that they do not tie into a light circuit to turn on automatically. I do not want to have to remember to turn these on every time I get my truck at night. Great video thanks for all the helpful info. But I think I’ll wait until they can turn on automatically. Thanks again

    Awesome ! It’s so much better than drilling holes 👍🏻

    The idea is awesome, my ram 3500 did not come with cab lights so I googled it to see what was out there. Unfortunately I don’t think the price is worth the idea. But eventually there will be more competition that will drive the price down for wireless cab lights......so.... I hit up eBay and got a cool set of led lights, rechargeable 3v battery’s small solar chargers and a transponder and receiver and after a 45 mins of soldering and sealing I now have the same thing for $47.....but that’s not all! I have a signal wire taped to my runners so I really don’t even need a remote 😎

    I'll definitely be buying a set asap. Not only is it made in the USA, but it's a small company. I support small and upcoming companies.

    Another great video man! Very cool that they are listening to feedback. These revised lights are convincing me more that I need these. Like you said though, integration with factory lights would be awesome. I do wonder if that idea has crossed their table - I believe the technology is available? I think it would be a great idea to offer that feature side by side with the current FOB-controlled lights. Perhaps create some sort of “FOB” that sends signal to the cab lights, that can be wired into/powered by the headlight/dimmer switch. That way as soon as the vehicle’s running lights are turned on, power is sent to the FOB, and thus, the cab lights as well. Seamless. Yes that does add wiring, but that install would be a breeze even for novice end-users. I think some sort of low-profile, battery life indicator in the form of a colored LED or a multi-LED strip would be a nice idea to compliment that. Something that can be easily and elegantly mounted inside the cab. I’d be willing to pay an additional cost for those features on top of the current price. That’s the only thing left holding me back from buying these lights. Take the convenience factor one step further and they’ll have my money.
