[QUOTE="HeadsUp, post: 297416, member: 414"] not too fussed on the 7 or 9 inch round as i think they are overkill and often block airflow to the radiator if fitted in front of the grille. i put a 20 inch 120 watt cree light bar on my hilux a couple of years ago but its [u]only just enough[/u] for bush driving in my opinion. If you fit a light bar , aim for 180 - 200 watts , any more than that and you are just a road hazard , you will blind the roos or fry them to a medium rare steak , blind other drivers and create global warming. Ask if you actually need them , or is it "just for looks" ? One point to consider , if you mount a light bar on the roof , will it be angled so the light illuminates your bonnet and distracts your vision from seeing the road or will it be mounted so just the roadway is illuminated ?
