Would have spent the 300 all over again maybe even more BUT eBay will be your friend on this one make sure the lights will be up to part or look the part but for cheep you can't have both.

I have a lot of experience with these lights, they look the part and when good wireing (10awg with relay) is used are vary bright AND look the part, only thing I would sugest is using a new new bolt from some where, and sanding and re painting the braket that holds the light on, they will rust after about a year if not, but they clean up great work great and are cheepish I recommend them
Edit, forgot website... Duh...

Are light bars only called that when on the roof or can you have a light bar on the bumper as well?

i bought lights at harbor freight my self. I think replaced the 55 watt with 100 watt bulbs. its the cheapest way to go with out spending alot of money. i have 4 forward facing lights 2 facing backwards and 2 more off the the side of my jeep all running 100 watt bulbs except the two facing sideways. You can pick up the 100 watt bulbs at any 4x4 store and some parts stores.

I remember I got the ones off eBay and put 130w in them and when they were on I could see forever, vary bright lights

I have a couple sets of the Harbor Freight 'off road pensil beams' and they are fine. $25 a pair, and another $5 to upgrade wires. Simple, cheap, effective.
If cost were no issue, LEDs would be my choice.
