I have an xj with a 3" lift and 31s and dont know how offroad lights would look. I am looking at buying 4 6" offroad lights for the top of my jeep. Please post pics! Thank you

PIAAs, they provide good light but they also create some glare off the glass and hood. Bumper lights seem like they'd be more effective and pleasant.

Keep them as low as you can I have 2 sets on top front and a rear for back up/work lights. My main ones are the Black Magic's on the bumper, I break a lot of lights so keep spares handy.

They're definitely more convenient on the bumper. The hood glare has never bother me but wind noise on the road can be obnoxious, there's noticeable drag driving with them on vs off, and I've had to take them off on the trail to make it under trees/branches that I couldn't move.

I like my fog lights better.

Nice. I have that same bumper. Haven't got lights yet and tried to picture what it would look like.might go with some cheap square LEDs if I can't afford some KC's right away. U put those ring tabs on?

No the tabs were on it but are easy to add.
