Default Finally Installed New Lights on BIG RED

Installed 20" light bar (9,600 lumens) on front bumper and 5" light pods (7,200 lumens each) on lower windshield!

Very pleased with the lights so far and they bright as the sun!

Is this the rough country 20" bar by chance? The lumens are the same so I figured I'd go ahead and ask. How do you like it? I just ordered one for a steal and am curious to see what I got! (Won't be here until 1/6/15)

No, it's by extremeledlightbars, fraction of the cost with a good warranty.

Paid $75 shipped from Amazon though! how's the light output? Do you think LED headlights will drown it out?

I already have Truck-Lite headlamps and the bar drowns them out. With the pods and light bar on you almost cannot tell if the headlights are off or on.

I'd like to see a pic of those pillars from behind to see how bright they really are.

What mounting brackets did you use for the square LEDs? They look really low profile.

The mounts are Smittybilt and I went with them for the low profile since I have the bigger pod.

I was going to take a video / pictures tonight, however it's raining so hard here that you cannot see across the yard..........
