I like where you guys going. I was thinking about a light bar as well, get some led bulbs and voila ...

These are junk. I went with a 5x7 LED replacement light that looks just like an led light bar, they use the bottom row for low beam and all for high. they are awesome, better than any aftermarket HID junk ive ever had.

Doesn't really help with composite head light set up. Not planning on going to a sealed light housing, so not really an option for me. Wouldn't mind seeing a installed pic though.

Amazon Reviews on LED bulbs, don't appear to be junk: http://www.amazon.com/New-Brights-L...4DEQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top#customerReviews

I dont understand this post. Are you saying the lights you are holding are junk or not? Can we see a link to the seller or are these the lights listed on Amazon in 509bercler's post?
In the reviews, you can see some people post pics. The pic that shows the headlights shining against a wall shows you that you will have major hotspots if you just put them in as a "plug and play" kit. Compare the light spread to the properly done projector retrofit posted earlier and you'll see the difference.
Absolutely. There is no comparison between the light pattern of a projector with any other light. They are simply superior... But they are also much harder for people to do properly... And they're not exactly cheap once you factor in new housings, the projector, and a hid kit. You do get a better product in the end but you are also paying more and spending more time on it.

I could be tempted to do some of the HID retrofits for other members here, but you would need to contact me via personal message to work out the details and timing. The HID projector retrofit isn't as costly as you might think, especially compared the TruckLites LED units that don't provide nearly the same output and beam pattern. Let me know if you are interested and we can run down the pricing and options.

Thanks for all the replys. After reading here and a lot of other forums I ended up ordering these: http://www.drivetrainamerica.com/p-15588-truck-lite-27450c-one-rectangular-led-5-x-7-ford-gm-van-jeep-xj-yj-headlight.aspx
Total shipped to Colorado for the pair was $361.70
So a lot of reviews on the yota sites and I think they will be the easiest, best solution for my needs. The other style headlight model would have been nice, but probably not worth the hassle.
Thanks for the help!
