Front spot recommendations
« on: February 20, 2008, 03:04:38 PM »

I'd like to get some spotlights for the Jeep.  Hasn't got bars or a roof mount (although I'd like them roof mounted if I could) so I guess its mounting them to the front bumper.  

I had PIAAs on my Impreza in place of the front fogs and they came with a little wiring kit and extra relay so I could switch them using the fog light.   If possible I'd like to do this again but would need a ready made kit.

Not overly expensive if possible.

Thanks :)

How can you refuse that. Minimum order just 10 pieces!

Got Hella's...though their aftermarket back up is non existant if you need stuff like replacement lamp covers

IMHO from experience if roof or screen mounting don't go 100w the glare will distract from driving view...

If you liked PIAA's, stick with them. I've had the same Pro80XT's on the YJ for 13 years. Never let me down yet. I have the relay hooked into the hi-beam wire, so full beam means 2x100w IPF headlights and 2x120w PIAA's.

imho, its a toss up between round ones or squareish ones, as long as they have bulbs and are wired up correctly.

cheap as they will get smashed
