How many lights?

I've got 4 kc's on the light bar, 2 fogs on the front bumper, 2 baby blinders on the rear bumper. So I'm a little night blind and like to see whats out there.
What do you have and how many?

Question Lights

I recently saw a Runner with a custom grill and fog lights mounted behind it. Who's is that and how'd they do it?

I've got the SilverStars up front and (2) 3" Hella's mounted to the recvr hitch as my back-ups. I too share this night blindness crap.

Macgyver did it awhile back, or however you spell his screen name. Custom grills, are, well, custom, so it's hard to say how he did his, but I thought it was just an aftermarket billet style grill. Fab up some mounts and yoru set.

I've got the same setup as Turboale.

2 Hella 500 Fogs on ARB
2 Hella 500 Driving (100w bulbs) on Rack
2 Hella FF1000 Driving (55w bulbs) on Rack

However I am hoping soon to move to 4 Hella 4000 compacts, prolly 2 pencil and 2 cornering for the light pattern. (see this other thread) Right now my 500's are about the same brightness (to quantify it technically), if not a little less than the 1000's with the 55W bulbs. The FF reflector is worth the extra money, IMO.

10 lights total

my 91 toy has blue 90/100 watt headlights (changable bulbs)

2 5x7 57 series kc fog lites mounted upside down from a westin pushbar on front

4 100 watt 5x7 kc off road lights on top of a dual single chrome rollbar

clear corners and blinkers with chrome bulbs and carbon fiber taillights with 15 watt 1157 backup bulbs perty dang brite reverse lites

I was telling my neighbor 2 nite i needed to look into getting a new brand of headlite bulb because while driving down a dark road at nite it seems to me my headlites are only shining 10 feet in front of me and cant see very well unless my brites are on he told me "your got to b kidding me you were coming at me the other nite and you lites were extremly bright I hate those blue bulbs. I found that to be intersting.
