Cheap and easy. Total cost, $15. Dont bother getting anything nice down there, they will just get broken anyway.

I run 4 small 55 W driving lights I picked up at Wally world. $20 for a set of two isnt going to make me cry when I bash them and they light up really well. I'd also recomend you use a relay and swap out the bullet style fuse that comes with them for a spade type. I melted the bullet style inline fuse holder in about ten minutes.

I decided to go for something bigger and more stout, went with these Hellla's. Off Amazon for like 6 bucks a piece.

I put one in each wheel well, and one midway under the Jeep on each side facing down. They're hella bright and work great!
