Also considering the mopar or kc brackets?

Default Lightforce 170 Stryker HID's

I opted for the Stryker HID's. I don't use 'em much, but sure do love them when I do!
Just throwing those out there as an option you haven't included.
My two cents for what it's worth.

i like the 100 watt driving because they shine plenty far for field and trail riding while giving a little wider beam then pencil. if i did open country or beach driving then maybe the spots.

I m going mopar mount. it lets the light sit a little lower and thus not blocking my short wife's field of vision. for taller people it probably doesnt make much difference.

I am mounting some KC Long range 130 watts on my windshield this weekend. I went with the LR because I plan on getting more lights for the bumper and those will be the 100 watt driving lights.

I love that the Warn lights have the remote control. No cutting, drilling or pulling your dash apart to wire the switch. Also, the price is just about the same as most of the pair packs.

I have the 130w SLim lights on the Mopar brackets. I'm happy with the choice. My consern was that with the driving lights at the windshield there would be a lot of glare. I do have some glare but it is not that bad. I might put a pair of driving lights on the bumper as I think that they are better suited there. My
