Default Bumper Light options..?

Ok, I have the factory bumper w/fogs and wanted to mount two lights on top of the bumper. I wanted to get some opinions from some who have done something similar and see what the best light for the money is....I know Kc's are good, but pricey. I've seen people buy lights from walmart, to kc, to tractor supply...and etc. Any opinions??

I got Eagle Eye Slim lights from knowwhere2jeep dot com. The lights I got are the 6" 100W Superwhite Slim lights.

I originally ordered the 7" lights but they were huge...like dinner plate huge So I sent them back for the 6" lights. Even though it was my fault (I didnt pay attention to the actual dimensions of the lights) Knowwhere2jeep sent me a pre paid fed ex label and did the exchange, no questions asked...I got my new lights 2 days later.

The Slimlights were about $90 + 5 shipping. Eagle eye also makes other lights that are a little cheaper, but I like the slim ones. I will be ordering another set for the bumper soon...

Here are the pics:

I put a set of Hella 1000FF's on my bumper

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of these lights for the money (actually they were a Christmas gift but still....) They are about a 7" light which I think looks good on a bumper.

Here's a pic someone snapped my Jeep at work



The lenses are a little frozen and salty in that pic. They are crystal clear when they are clean and very bright.

Does the light/bar combo cause glare issues? Wonder what they look like at night...
