Default New KC's Installed!

Got my n-Fab light bar on and KC Slimlites all wired up this past weekend. Outer two are 100W fogs, inner two are 100W driving lights. Install was pretty easy, just took some time to tidy up the wiring once all was said and done. I wasn't after off road lights or HID's. I wanted a pair of fogs because I don't have OEM fogs, and another pair of highs for always driving on back roads through deer country. All I can say is these things are bright

I mounted them on the light bar shown in the pic, which bolts to the frame. Everything comes with the lights that you need to mount them on the bar and to wire them up.

I understand, but the 2 sets I have are specifically labeled fog and driving. The fog lamps project much differently than the driving lamps, and I can definitely notice the difference. The fogs do a good job of illuminating the area right in front of the truck to shine underneath the fog, they also project much wider than the driving lamps too. The driving lamps do a good job of illuminating straight down the road, while the stock high beams shine to the outside more. Using both the driving lamps and high beams together create quite a lit up view when driving down unlit back roads.

I agree. It's a great "low profile" bar that isn't as noticeable as a bull bar, which is exactly the look I was going for. Easy to install and looks great.
