I finally made some new brackets for my cattle guard and got it all squared away, but in the process I finally finished off my Hella's...The damn housing's were junk. They were made out of plastic and kept cracking so I kept joo'ing em' back together with sheetmetal screws. As far as lighting goes, what have ya'll had the best luck with?

On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
pro comp 8 in. 130 watts, they are much brighter from kc's, and all metal.
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
Just finished installing the Pro Comp 8" 130's they look good, are bright, and weren't too pricey.
Edit- I wish Jimmy and all the scout fags were there at 4wp's, they had a badass suburban looking scout with a bunch of shat done to it.

Old thread revival.
SO I need some 6" lights, post mounting style for my bumper on order. LEDs and HIDs seem pretty sweet, but no way I want to spend that type of skrilla. I want bright as **** lights for under 200, preferably under 150. Suggestions?

I have a couple of vision X 6" LED light bars for sale if you want to be big pimpin...
Easy, KC 130w Daylighters are under $150, buy off of amazon, free shipping. That's the brightest you are gonna get without getting expensive or into HID conversions.
Hella 500's with the chinese hid conversion. That's what Travis has, they blow 130w kc's out of the water.
This, 4 for less than $200

I just watched a spider dominate a fly on the wall outside, i thought would would travis do? and i did the opposite, spider lives!
I have had Hella 500s and really do not like the cheesiness of how they are built. But I won't rule them out yet. WHat all is involved in the HID conversion. I think I remember travis having a thread about it.

What about a HID conversion on something with a metal housing? I can only imagine the plastic housings on the hellas will fall apart after a few uses with the HIDs with how hot they get.

All I have heard about Travis's lights is how finicky they are, however, this is from third parties.
KC: Easy install, Fawkin America, 23 year factory warranty.
What about the cheap kragan hids? I've read quite a few good reviews of them
I have looked for them. They are hard to find. Rugged ridge has some for pretty cheap.
Yeah i just looked, the cheapest I could find was like 110
