Bull Bar Lights

I'm wanting to order a Bull Bar, maybe talk the wife into it for my birthday.

Now for the lights. Where is a good place to get them? Good brands? I doubt I use them much outside of Oct-Jan, so I really don't need to spend a wad on the lights. Should I stay away from the ones at Walmart or the Auto parts stores, or would that work well? Let me know guys, thanks!

I went with the Westin Round Fog Lights. Ive had mine a year and still working great! I think there were $60.00 maybe. I was in the same boat didnt want anything to cheap but a good name product I could count on too.

This place has them for $60.00 with free shipping.

I've got PIAA 525s on my Westin Bullbar... I love em, and they have LEDs that are wired into my parking lights, so the PIAAs glow white when the main bulb is off...

Personally, even if I didnt use my lights allot I would still put nothing but the best on my truck. I have a black Westin bull bar with black KC slimlight foglights. I would stay away from the walmart and auto store brands. Nothing against them but I just dont know how good they are.

Maybe one day I'll be able get Hella 500FF's and put some H3 HID bulbs in them. That would be awesome lighting there!

I just picked up my smittybilt bull bar from 4 wheel parts for $135 looks sweet. No where near the price of the Westin. I'll get pics soon.

This one is black. It looks great. Plenty of money left over for lights (compared to Westin)

There a 4 wheel parts over on Cobb parkway in Marietta IIRC. About a mile or 2 away from 6 flags Whitewater. The guys there are pretty cool and not that bad to deal with.

If I were you I would invest in a decent pair of lights. I have PIAAs and they're great. I've used quite a few brands (Hella, ProComp, KC to name a few) and the PIAAs are by far the best. The wiring harness is completely plug and play so the install is a breeze.

I had 150W KC Daylighters on my old truck and they were awesome.
