I was looking at some on amazon but those ones sounds better and don't cost much more

Here's a link to the ones on amazon
Amazon.com: Navigator NV-1204" x 6" Clear Fog Light with Stone Guard and Cover: Automotive Amazon.com: Navigator NV-1204" x 6" Clear Fog Light with Stone Guard and Cover: Automotive

They seam pretty good but the Harbir Freight ones seem like they would project light farther

Thanks

I installed 2 of the LED fog lights on my brush guard today. Used my stock fog wires and switch. These pics suck, I'll get some better ones on another day.

Yes on Amazon they only sell flood lights. For spot lights, you'd have to order from tuffledlights.com. Or find another brand.

Not offend at all. They look way better in person. LEDs just don't look great when I take pics. Plus I have them hooked up to the OEM fog light wires and switch. So I can't show them on their own.

Is this pic any better?

Yellowish color is my headlights lol. Remember I need the headlights on because of how I wired them. When I figure out how to use my other 2 LEDs, I'll post a pic of them on their own. Not sure if they are gonna be on my basket, rear bumper, or just use an extra stock roof rack cross bar. Kinda leaning toward the cross bar idea.

If I had more $$ I would get some Nates bumpers with the light tabs. But I figure that the cross bar idea is the most affordable route.
