Default offroad lights

id like to get some opinions on offroad lights and possible links. ive been seeing a lot about these led lights but not sure how good they are. and the prices are pretty high. my current lights are the old school KC style. they look nice, but the glass lens is starting to turn a yellowish color and they are rusting. has anybody been running the led style? and if so, what do you think? pics would be nice as well if ya got any handy. I appreciate it!

LEDs are the way to go without a doubt. They use virtually no electricity. I ran my 50" led bar on my 06 for about 3 hours one night with my truck turned off and it started up no problem. 24000 lumens are unbeatable too. And the prices are going Down.

You can make your own brackets but I bought ADD brackets. They're super low profile. Are you wanting a 50" bar or just some smaller bars?

I was wanting either a 50 " bar, or 4 singles to replace the KC lights on the bumper.

Gotcha. Well you will not be disappointed with a 50. You can't come close to the light output with anything else. But cubes are a much Less expensive alternative that still give out a ton of light.

Check out TAP auto. They usually have some really good deals on LED's plus he's a member of the forum.
