Title: FOB's where can I buy them?
Post by: DoubleJ on June 27, 2012, 07:18:22 PM: I can't seem to find them except at their website for $30/dz. Are there other places online or brick and mortar store that sells them?

Post by: buckfvr on June 27, 2012, 07:34:20 PM: You want these, Ill send them to ya, but I dont think they are the answer......in no application I tried were they noticably better than regular 3inch 3 fletch, so I abandoned the thought. :dunno:

FOB's are a pain, the minute you lose one in the brush or rip one off on your truck seat getting out of the rig you'll see why.
