I've got some Hella 550 driving lights and am pleased with them, but i'd like to get a set of fog lights for a roof rack.

 

blimey, those crazy aussie make a tough set of lights. crikey!

 

Man I want a pair of those! Big $$$$$ though. Where did you say you live? JK

 

I have two IPF 900 MSR lights up front on the guard with HIR bulbs in them. These are super bright!! I highly recommend them (although they are a tad expensive). I also have two Hella FF1000's up on the safari rack with Silverstar H1 bulbs in them. Also have two Hella Micro DE foglights on the grill as well.

Have two no name 55 watt backup lights mounted under the bumper (no pictures of these in the link, but pics of everything else.)

Bump...

Alright I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a set of IPF 900MSRs, just looking for some feedback from owners, if you had to choose lights again would you still choose the 900?

These pictures have me pretty much convinced:

Various lights: (KC Daylighters, PIAA 520s, Hella 500s, Pro Comp)


Same Group, but the right hand Heep turns on his IPF 800MSRs:

 

Here is what I have, they are 2 Baha offroad lights from Canadian tire... They are only 55w, but they are bright... And they only cost me about $45.... Now I need a rack and 4 more....
Offroad lights

 

Okay I am cheap. Are the Hella 500 (55w) that much better than the $20 Baja lights I can get at Wal-Mart? They are both 55w. I would think the light is about the same.

Any input.

 

Well I have to say, the construction of the Hella's I have seem to be much better than those that I have seen at Walmart. 2 Hella 550 driving lights mounted on the bumper, with 100 watt bulbs, seem to do fine for me, I will eventually change all of my high beams to 100 watts.

 

i'm thinking about putting some lights on my taco.

i saw the hella 500's at wal mart for 62 bucks. i haven't been doing much wheeling lately, but from what i've heard about them in this thread.... you almost can't go wrong for 62 bucks. then if i decide to buy higher output lights later, i can still keep a pair of the hella 500's mounted on my front bumper and mount the higher output lights on a roof rack or roll bar or something.

also, are the kc daylighters 6" lights? i thought about maybe getting a set of those sweet happy face covers and putting them over my hella 500's. then nobody will know i am a cheapskate

 

Does anyone have pics of the actual beam pattern that Hella 500 driving lights put out? I would like to see how they compare to stock low/high beams. All I could find in searching was the illustrated pic that Hella has on their website.

 

I have four light force 170's mounted just above my bumper. I have them used several times in the deserts of Mexico and they light up the road very nicely. I would highly recommend Light Force products. They are a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.
