I have a 2010 Rubicon (i.e. has foglamps). I'm in the market for a nice set of off-road lights to supplement the factory candles (literally, it seems!) when heading home from my tree stand. Anyway, reading posts, other sites, reviews, etc., I haven't seen a post recommending one over the other or why...

I've always had luck with the KC brand, so am staying with what I know unless someone sells me on something in the same $ range. HIDs definitely aren't in my budget - please don't waste your time typing that response, unless you're buying (). Do you recommend the driving beam or long-range beam? Why?

I'll add that the intended mounting location is on the bumper.

Thanks for your input.

I have the IPF 968 windshield mounted. They are a hybrid style light pattern with a decent spot but they also have a good spread. High quality product, and I think they look really good. The installation is a breeze.

 

I have KC slim long ranges on windshield mounts. Works good for trails at night.

 

Are you using the 55W or 100W bulbs? The description sounds like the kit comes with both bulbs.

They do come with two sets of bulbs the 100 watters are awesome they. Ipf 968's are a great value

 

Im running the KC Slimlite Longrange lights on my windshield. They have been fantastic so far. I like em.

 

Thanks for the info so far. Keep it coming.

You realy should do a little research on beam patterns and how they are best used. I'm not trying to knock you man. But better understanding goes a long way.

 

I have the 130 KC dayliters driving lights and they are really bright. I have them on my bumper, and their wiring harness is the best easiest one I have seen. Also the 23 year warrenty is very nice. Good Luck, there are alot to choose from. I choose the driving lites because I got them mainly for watching for deer jumping in front of me. I don't even use mmy high beams any more because the dayliters are brighter than they are. Just my 2 cents.

 

Given PA's regulations for aftermarket lighting, I'd go with driving lights on the bumper wired (via a switch and relay) to work when your high beams are on.

In the future you could add spotlights as windshield lights to supplement your bumper mounted driving lights while off-road - these would need to have the covers fitted on while on-road.

Everyone's going to have different opinions on the 'brand' of light you buy. You normally get what you pay for, and a 'name' brand will likely be of better quality than some the el-cheapo's you see on eBay. Ignoring my own advice, I opted for 'el-cheapo' Pro-comps on an MBRP bar ;
