Mate. That radio?
I'd just keep the LED. I recon they'd be good for winding bush tracks .Zooks hardly need long range driving lights.

almost there had some probems with the mounting due to that where the holes i had to drill were right on the end of the brakets and the bolts wernt going in properly so now i gotta get some new longer ones. so i decided to get the toggle switch sorted out. so i found some ally checker plate drilled three holes in it for three different switches one for light bar, one for room light and the third will be for something when i think of it. im no metal worker or have the propper tools to make it look really good but i did what i could on the little bracket |

why didnt you keep the spotties and mount the led bar on the top of the bullbar? then you would have another switch to fill the gap on ur switch panel |

It would have been nice to see picture comparing the LEDs to the spotties. |

Sorry Fools these are no where near the same as the lightbars I sell. Many loads of cheap shit out there. i'm not going to harp on too much because you get what you pay for really. A cheap light bar is a cheap lightbar. There is a reason they are cheap, low lumen/watt LED emittters, Cast alloy housings instead of Extruded Alloy housings like the ones i do, cheap imitation lexan lenses not real lexan lenses, inaccurate and misleading light output figures, non stainless bolts used which will rust...the list goes on. For a lot of people these will do the job. I tested all these type of bars that these sellers are bringing in and the ones that shep linked to close to two years ago now and I didn't rate them. The Aurora bars are expensive, but they are many times better in light output and build quality. I would sell a cheap lightbar but I don't want to risk my reputation with a product I wouldn't want to run on my own vehicle. Hence I stick with the Aurora Brand. Towards the end of this month I'll have single row 5 watt lightbars that will blow everything else out of the market in terms of light output. They are going to be brighter than the 3 watt double row bars I currently do. Sorry for the hijack Shannon, i don't mean to rain on your parade mate as you are obviously happy with your purchase and thats great. But it's important to know the differences in the range of bars out there because to the uniformed they all look very similar but performance is dramatically different. |
