I have a bunch of lights but also use them regularly. Typically we are out for Friday - Sunday and go till midnight or later and up at dawn. Use them for driving at night (duh lol), field repairs, lighting up accident scenes (we've had a couple), can't go wrong with extra light.

TL Headlights, IE fog lights, lightforce dinner plates on front bumper, 50" light bar, small cubes on A pillar pointing to the sides, rear has a small light bar up top, rear lights also mounted in bumper.

Also a DIY lamp post thats really handy lol.

ID:	636472 I say go wheeling without any extra lights... And once you've gotten into a situation where you say to yourself "man I need some extra light" that's when you'll need to assess where you'd like to go from what you experienced YOU need out of lights. I personally am doing really well with a 20" light bar on the hood and 4 - 3" squares on the a pillar (which can be turned to the sides for 180° of light). I have an HID upgrade to my headlights as well and replaced the fog lights with 2 LEDs. Click image for larger version

I would say almost a majority of my wheeling is done at night. I have the nightsun4x4 headlights, a pair of knockoff pods on my pillars, and a pair of kc slims on my bumper. Had a knockoff 32" bar on my bumper as well but took it off. Also have a knockoff 7" lightbar on my rear bumper. I almost hate the looks of LEDs nowadays, especially the double windshield lightbars. I'm going to take off the kcs as they are pretty much worthless. I would like to get a decent pair of fogs though.

I have a lot of lights on my jeep, 2 pods, 50", led fogs & led headlights, with a bumper set all with LED in them. I personally like the fogs & headlights because they really light up the road, & my light bar and pods help light up more (when there's no traffic, to help me spot for deer, (I previously hit one).

On a side note, jeeps are tough because I hit the deer & the only damage was a cracked license plate cover
