I was going to pick up an extra set of fog lights to go on my future purchase of a brush guard. Any recommendations? Obviously cost is an issue but I want something that looks nice and not out of place on the front.

Hella 500's :tu:

IPF's, hands down the best quality, but you pay for it.:tu:

Oh yeah, they're good but big time $$$$$$.

check out the new warn lights if you want to see spendy the specs are awsome but they`re $1000 bucks
I guess it all depends on what you`re looking for as far as lightability
Personally I prefer floods over spot type lights so I went old school and put on a pair of 6x9`s I just happen to have a truck with 6 KC`s on it so I borrowed two of them for now
They fill in the whole area up the road and off the sides and you only need two that`s why the guys that run the spots run four lights two for the road and two for the sides
it`s just personal preference

I just bought a pair of Hella Rallye 4000 CELIS Compact lamps for my brush bar. The lamps have a metal housing and the version I have uses a CELIS ring (like the BMW uses in their headlamps) that I plan to wire into the parking lamp circuit.

Hella also offers a 3000 Compact which is the same lens/reflector in a plastic housing.

What is the difference between a fog and a driving light? I noticed the Hella 500's for example have two different versions, but both cost the same and appear to have the same specs.

A fog lamp operates in conjuction with your low beam headlamps and fills the area between the front of the vehicle and the beginning of your low beam as well as gives you coverage to the right and left of the vehicle.

A driving lamp is operated with your high beams and gives you additional long range lighting. In some states, driving lamps are not legal on road and must be covered while driving.

Yeah, but technically they are the same light so why would they be market differently just because one comes on with your highs and one comes on with your lows?

The lens and reflector are different, one goes for distance and the other goes under fog, rain, sleet etc.

I was inspired by Junglemans KC 69 series lights. I was looking at the 57 series because they seemed to be a good combination between going farther than high beams and still lighting up a bit to the left and right. Has anyone had any experiance with these lights?

I`m surprised I don`t get pulled over more I`ve had a couple hard looks from CHP`s going the opposite direction but I`m not sure if they`re looking at the lights or the absence of a front plate
Back in the day it was pretty common to get red lighted everywhere I went and all they wanted was to tell me to put the covers on I guess there`s some benefits to haircuts and getting older

The "off road" driving lights are divided into categories also there`s flood and spot type besides the fog type lights
somewhere there should be specs for any light you`re looking at that shows the beam pattern and distance

I haven`t used the 57`s just the 6" round
sorry
