Rough Country 30" single row LED bar from their RCscratchanddent ebay store. Great built quality that I would expect at least a few years of operation before it gets moisture inside vs the cheap imports that only lasted me a few months before moisture got in.

I tie them into the high beams for easy operation. 30" single row light covers the road well.

Thanks. I'm doing a budget build so am looking at some budget friendly brands was thinking of the 3 inch raxiom ones from Extreme terrain or the harbor freight brand.

I don't have a photo but just recently put some Vision X 4.7 CG2 LED Light Cannon's on my Arcus Bumper. Its funny the guy at the offroad place begged me to go with the 6.5's or something like that size. He said I would be sorry. He's a good guy and has done a bunch of work on my vehicles over the year. I told him man your just trying to get an upsale. He repeated again you will wish you went bigger. So as I type this I am laughing cause yea I wish I would have gone with the larger size. Maybe down the line I will sell these and go to the next size up. These put out a good amount of light but the damned Oracle Oculus BI LED's put out almost the same amount of light so it didn't achieve exactly what I was wanting. I've got some DD SS3 Yellow fogs also which are fantastic lights

23" Combination offroad/fog lights from Quake. Takes up two switches in my aux panel. $300 list, $250 show price. Wired in a pair of 2x6 Amazon cheapies ($15 the pair) into the OEM fog light harness from the original bumper for accent/ground lighting in the corners. (And the passenger side fender has been fixed since this was taken.)

Hi - I am very interested in being able to activate extra lights with high beam - how did you do it?

It is not very difficult once you wrap you head around it... On my '21 the headlight wire harness has a white with gray wire that is 12V+ hot when the bright lights are on. You can verify with a test light. That wire will go to pin 86 on a relay and 85 goes to ground. That takes care or the signal wire. You could add a switch as one option..... Then you have to send 12v+ through the relay to actually power the light. I have the Aux switch option so under my hood I had power wires already. I use the #3 which had the higher current rating and put that on pin 30. Then Pin 87 would go out to your off road lights as the 12V+. On your lights take the black and run it to a local ground screw or to the Negative terminal on your batter..... Okay maybe it was difficult because describing it wasn't easy. lol

Loyo 4.5" cannons on the front in spot beam and Hella 3" lights on the A pillar in spot beam. Love the amount of light they give off and came in at under $150 for everything including the mounts for the A pillar.

Railroad tracks in the distance are .31 miles down the road, only know the distance because I run on this road at lunch time.
