And with these lights you are much more likely to see it.



PS - don't ask about the snorkle

Your set up is spot on mate

Spotties on the nose (as mentioned, on fast tracks / roads out of town its a necessary function) and a LED light bar is the absolute pinnacle of a set-up...

HIDs are over rated...

LED light bars for the use as said above provide a good flood of light in the surrounding vicinity of the vehicle....

But - What's up with the Snorkel?

I can't agree with you there. Good quality driving lights with HID conversions are very good, much better than halogen bulbs with the added bonus of lower current draw.

"What happened to the snorkle" ????

Yeah....."What happened to the snorkle" ????

Said don't ask....lol

OK, ok already..... You guys are persistant.
It got a little too close to a tree.

It was the only photo I could find in a hurry that showed the LED Bar. Besides, with the top on the snorkle, it would have blocked a clear view of it!!

On a more serious note, driving with these lights at night is increadible. It's almost like driving in daylight. I can drive all night. There's no hot spot that focusus my vision - there's an even spread of light to the sides, up and forward. Fatigue is reduced markedly.

That will teach you for chasing the kangaroo into the bush.....the roo had the last laugh it seems. lol

I agree....the light bar makes driving so much easier than my light force hids on my previous ride.

Brett....

With no front bar and not wanting to have a roof rack permanently mounted would it be possible to fit and brace these across the top of the front plastic bumper in a D3/D4 ?

I assume due to the shape and fact it is one unit there would be much less vibration force compared to fitting spotties ?

Anyone tried this ?
