[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 406708, member: 6317"] I finally let it get to me that I'd NEVER had great lighting on any of my rigs in the past. Bottom line was that I never wanted to spend the money on lighting. This time I still stuck as close to the Samurai way and found the best prices I could on what I got...but I believe I'm going to be extremely happy with what I've got... I went back and forth on how to mount the light bar, but in the end this was the simplest way to get it done... [IMG]http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm13/clemsonjeep/Samurai/IMAG3661_zpsmjagemt7.jpg[/IMG] The difference in light output between my old Hella 500's and LED's is crazy... [IMG]http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm13/clemsonjeep/Samurai/IMAG3662_zps0b1pd47b.jpg[/IMG] I got in touch with MOMAR here on the forum to pick up a pair of his Tracker Pods for the front and a pair of his Mini Pods for the rear. [IMG]http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm13/clemsonjeep/Samurai/IMAG3667_zpscgnqpwbe.jpg[/IMG] Then I looked around on eBay and found a seller with 6 of these Eagle Eye lights for a great price and picked them up to use as rock lights. [IMG]http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm13/clemsonjeep/Samurai/IMAG3668_zpsz7ugyrsn.jpg[/IMG] Front lights installed. [IMG]http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm13/clemsonjeep/Samurai/IMAG3671_zpsgte2m4bz.jpg[/IMG] Rear lights installed [IMG]http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm13/clemsonjeep/Samurai/IMAG3670_zpslghhon6t.jpg[/IMG] I also managed to make the panel for my stop/tail/turn lights...I like for people behind me to know what I'm doing...especially when stopping.
