i had a set of hella 500cs from walmart that worked pretty good. They were on my jeep and they put light out pretty good. I figured they would be junk but for $50 would try them and they actually were pretty decent.

KC daylighters wont work with your truck and a bullbar, they're too deep, you wont be able to mount them on the bar cause they would be hitting the bumper, go with hella, there thin

Get some Hella Black Magic 500s...super slim and throw out some great light for such a shallow reflector. I just installed 4 on my truck.

If you are able to make KC daylighters work they are great. I love mine.

Go to the KC site and look up the specs on the Daylighters. They are 5¼inches deep but most of that is in front of the mounting stud.

I bought 2 of the Blazer off road 100w lights today. I'll be getting 2 more next week. I decided I'm gonna mount 4 in my brush gaurd, that should do the trick! If your leary of the blazer lights, rest easy! They have a pic of an F-150 on the label with their lights on it lol, so it's gotta be good lol...

Those are actually decent lights. I had a set on my Jeep and they worked well.
