They are decent lights. They also sell a tractor light that you can get upgrade bulbs up to 300 watts. BTW are those Ground Hawgs you're running? I sold a set of 38s a few months ago that I ran on my XJ, they were way heavy but after a bit of grooving they hooked up well in the rocks.

im running those lights just make sure you wire them up to a power source directly and not through your stock fog lights like i did haha they suck if you do that.

I had a set of those on my Nissan before the KC's and they worked prety good. Id like to get some smaller lights from there for rock lights.

Someone posted a thread about these awhile back. Its got suggestions on how to make them better because they don't come with relays and they used to come with crappy toggle switches. I'll try and find the thread...

Looks like there is more than one.


This one has the info about switch upgrades and relays for better use/upgrading.

Do you have an O'Reillys in your area? If so, go buy this kit right here...


Comes with everything you need. 40 amp relay kit, fusable link. I run this kit on my KC Daylighters, never had any problems. 12 bucks

Ohh yeahh man, i bought a pair for my truck last summer, they were 20 bucks, i got them in one of those tent sales they have, and i set them up on my front bumber, took them out the first night i had them on and they were bright as hell!
And they could of been brighter if i had a bigger battery. I am going to buy 3 sets of them, next month hook em up on top my xj. with there own battery not the cars main one, i might even think of makin them HID's. But they are some really great off road lights for there price.

Yes they are, so you know if that kit will handle the Daylighters, you could hook 10 of those HF lights up to it with no worries.
