Finaly got my lights installed....
Lights are HID's by custom accessories 100 each for the 7's and 90 each for the 4's
and a Randy Ellis Light Bar. 305 bucks
They are the cheaper HID's sold at Schucks, but seem to do a very good job, the two 4 inch shoot out to the sides an the 7's shot straight out but just a hair off center.

 

those look nice, i want the lightforce but the wallet sais no way. I need to check those out.

 

I figured these would last long enough for the price on the LED's to drop. The Vision X's are around 450 now, couple years they should be half that. You can see them at Auto trim in Fairbanks

 

Kinda brings a new meaning to 'Norther Lights'!!!!!

Looks good, fine looking install. Of course you know if you hit something you are gonna take a lot of flack!!!!

 

looks good !
we use to use bulbs from airplane landing lights (kike the ones on the wing of a Cessna. ) SIGHTLY ILLEGAL HOWEVER THEY WILL LIGHT UP THE ROAD LIKE DAYLIGHT FOR ABOUT A MILE
BEEN THINKING OF INCORPORATING A PAIR IN TO THE FRONT OF MY JEEP !

JUST SO I DON`T HIT DEER YOU UNDERSTAND

CLAUDE

 

Nice install. I also like your winter front. I have the same one. This will be the first winter for it.

 

Nice looking Paul.

I've had this truck for 3 years now and haven't bothered to put any lights on it yet. Kinda surprised at that. But putting the stockers on a relay setup worked out pretty good.

 

I used those on my semi trailers for back up lights....they fit in the same gromets that my brake lights used (mine did anyway)


Thankfully we have snow now and that helps to light up the sides.

'
Thanx only wish they had blackout covers....Hope the mounties don't give me a hard time with them if I go south this year....I pass thru Yukon and BC on my way out.

After missing the last two moose by a hair on their chin, literly the last one was really close, I really don't know how I missed it. On the way home 2 nites ago I saw moose off the side that I kniow I wouldn't have seen without these lights.

 

Yeah I know all about those moose in the ditch. They can be real hair raisers.

 

We get this strange black hole effect over here some times. It doesn't matter how much light you throw at it, the flat black soaks it right up. My biggest concern is the loss of depth perception in white out conditions. I need to "hi mount" some amber floods to help on that one. I had them in Montana and they were great.

 

Soooooo are you trying to shoot him or see him.

 

I found that mounting the amber lights low worked better. Actually had a set slung under the bumper and they worked great until the snow drifts whacked them out of alignment..... Put them on top of the bumper and they stayed put and did a good job.

 

yeah I have a set of those 7"'s on my rig as well there really a great light for the money. I HATE NOT seeing them mooses..lol

 

got a pic of them lit up???

 

Funny you ask....Thought about it on the way back from Anchorage tonight.
I drove 365 miles and ran with them on about 3/4 of the trip. Saw 2 moose off to the side I would have missed stock. Anyway I stopped on the road totally away from any light source, turned off the flash and took two pics, one of the brights on and one with the hids on. maybe I'll Take a couple head on later.
