So i went into our basement, stole one of my housemate's thule bars, get some walmart lights, broke apart my old ski rack mounts, and bam! i've got myself a light bar!

it's only attached to the car.. because the box is pushing down on it, but i'll get to mounting it correctly later.. and wiring the lights.

 

 

 

whoah! now i just need some more lights to throw on there, and.. some mounts so it doesn't fall off when i go around corners

I like the lights.Nothing wrong with adding some extras.I too have used walmart lights with good results.Looks really good.

becareful how you mounting them... mounting them too close to your case underneath it may cause some damage due to heat... I know from experiance :-p

Run a thin strip of black tape along the bottom edge of the lenses, it will stop the light reflecting into your windshield.

 

Looks good Andyjo

I just mounted 4 of these.

 

Think they will be bright enough?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Click me

me want:slobber:

 

 

i wouldn`t want to be standing in front of it as it gets turned on though:banghead:

total 4kW??? Ok, so avrg alternator is 55amp. 4000Watts divided by 12 volts (they run on 12volts?) = 333.3 amps... Car batteries can do about 400 cranking amps (means they can do that for about 10seconds just say, before getting damaged.) How many alternators you planning on running?

 

Though I must say... They would be brilliant when someone is highbeaming you... :-\

Actually, the lights run on 28VDC, And In case you have not figured it out, that's not mine.....

 

Click the thread and read about them....no way they are even close to DOT apporved...hell almost have to be NASA approved......

Love the jedi light. Having 4 jedi's on the front of your car would really help in traffic.

or it could just cause huge pile ups everywhere. which could be nice, so long as you dont get stuck in one of those pile ups.

Ok... then its 142AMPS at 28volts.... you would prolly want to run it off a old 24v or 32volt 'generator'... And seems those old things arnt up to much, you'd be fillin your bonnet with generators... well, unless you can find a truck alternator. maybe a 24v one would be easy to find. Still it might be hard to find a 142amp one...

 

I can't see how they would be good for driving tho. Unless your driving a jet powered car, you just don't need to see that far infront !

well, ima stay on topic, and, those lights look cool up there andyjo, the more lights, the better

Yeah they do look cool. You planning on putting four up there?

 

Side topic: What do you think about me putting 4 7" round spotties on my brats rollbar?

Yeah i'm thinking of taking the lights on the front bumper, and putting them up there, and then gettins oem biggins' for the front

and yeah, 7"ers on the brat would be awesome

how about two 7" 's on the outside of the rollbar, and some 6x9 rectangles in the middle?? i like the way that looks Mine are 6" ers and they seem, well, big enough..

I like your idea on the lights ... reminds me I need to get that roll bar in so I can put lights on it too

 

and all I can say about the tank search-light is OMG!

Alright, so i can't stand not having a full light bar, so i got some more lights for it today, MAN does this thing kick some light

here's some more pics...

 

 

So now.. that's 4 on the bar, 2 driving lights, and stock headlights... it's pretty good, i think i still need some fogs again... some fogs that won't break this time

thanks i'm blind now

 

Holy *&^%,That's Some Bright Lights You Got There.hope your battery's up to the task.

 

i know mine wouldn't be.

Nice! Time for an optima yellow top D35 ...I just bought a set of Lightforce RMDL 170's (focusable)to put on my outbacks rack for some overhead lights...

WOW. Maybe to recoup the price of lights you can open a tanning salon.

 

Looks sweet though, I bet it's a dream on those dark woodsroads and such.

damn you scoobyclimbs! my next set of lights is going to be some lightforce 170's!!

beat me too it... !!

maybe i'll get some 240s... 9" diameter will look good on the front bumper

I have just put a new set on myself.....

 

 

Two new 130w PIAA's from ebay, one spot one spread. $60 Aussie or $40 US.

I just scored another set for $72 as well, both spots.

They are going on the jet boat!

I currently am running 720w of forward light and 240w rear.

 

Blessed be the alternator!

NICE ride, matty b.

I like the two tone. And the matching dog, lol.

 

I mean 4 round 7 inch lights, what was that about rectangles? I can't quite imagine what your on about. Is it like two 6" squre on the side and 2 6x9 inch in the middel?

Thanks dude, its a work in progress as normal.

The matte black on the bottom lets me touch up the sratches and stone chips with a paint brush.

Then one day I was a little 'offa' and masked the stripe all around.

 

That's Groover (or El Grooverino, if you're not into the whole brevity thing),

he is the finest dog in the entire world.

Like 2 7inch round ones on the outsides, and 2 6x9's in the middle. i think that looks pretty cool, but 4 7's would be nice to.
