I had bought them from harbor freight for $20 and I'm yet to install them and I'm just wondering if anybody has a good opinion.

They are good rock lights or work lights but as driving lights or spot lights not real great compared to something like hella 500ff.

How would you compare them to the rectangle "blazer" off road lights from autozone?

i have those "off road lights" got them for the same price $20 plus 20% off.

i have yet to install, but the will serve mostly as brush guard decorations, as the light should be weak and not all that well directed.

hell for $20 you can buy like 6 pairs for the cost of a good light that will shatter just as fast.

my brother lost both of his PIAA super bright blah blah lights to gravel. sucker

I have four of these lights mounted on top of my 95.



Here are all four light on. The closest circle is the center two lights. Those are my "rock spotters" And the farthest bit of light is the outer two lights; My "deer spotters". (They have saved me many times)

And this is with my rewired (with relays & 10ga wire) high beams and the outer two lights of the light bar.

***To counteract the vibration I put hot glue on the spline part of the mounting hardware for the light which has reduced the amount of vibrations that are transfered to the beam of light

Your lights shine further than I can actually see. Pretty sick.
