Cheap walmart lights?
I got the twenty dollar set and a thirty dollar set, both came with two lights. Anybody else got these? I just mounted them and don't have time to wire them today. I was just wondering if they were worth the money.

they arent hellas, but you get what you pay for. i have to mounted on my roof rack, and i have them angled outwards for side viewing at night down 2 lane roads so i dont hit deer. work like a charm.
20$ walmarts on top- 100$ hellas on the bumper-stock headlights

I bought a cheap set from wal mart when they were on clearance (old models), and then I went to auto parts store and got 100w lights for them instead of the lousy 55w that came in them.. def. worth the upgrade

I aim them to light up the 5 or so feet in front of the bumper, because I don't want to adjust my headlights too low.

I bought some IPFs and put some 100w bulbs in them. They are nice! Later i put some cheap wal mart ones in where the fog lights go. They dont do a thing.. Only been 3 months and they are fogged over too. (And thats using them maybe once a week)

I bought a pair and they were brighter than my headlights. That isn't saying much though so I re wired them and added 130 watt bulbs. They are very bright now.
