few more lights wont hurt lol

I have the led light bar which is awesome up to about 100ft but not much length to the light and had these little ring spots in shed gathering dust and had them on previous vehicles and are deep little suckers that throw a good beam. And living in deep country side is good for wildlife and narrow lanes. So these hopefully will give a bit more length to the light. Will need to brace under bumper or they will wobble (which I hate). Thought about bonnet pod but cant justify the £100 for the pod. Any way here's the pic

Looking good. Been thinking about some extra lighting for the front of mine but not sure which way to go. I kind of like the chrome lights but I'm also warming to LED light bars too.

Can anyone "spot" my two additional spot lights?

NASA requests that you don't use them all at once, it confuses the guys in the ISS.

Hey Rustic, you gone all clandestine on us with lights behind the grill?

Years ago before I got married and still had fun

I used to have a lovely pair of Cibie Oscars, would love some more of those.

I thought they would be too vulnerable upfront, and since I don't have aircon, they sit nicely on a very thin angle that goes left to right, with a home made dropper bar that drops down, from the slam plate.

They've been on nearly ohh.... 20 years lol

Looking good

I was thinking of a light bar on my front bumper but it would really stick out far so went for another set of 7.5" Ring Sportsline spots which I had on my old T2 as they did put out good light but going to upgrade the bulbs this time to either nightbreaker or poss Cree or SMD LED's

Ironic you should post this, I will be putting the 4 from the front of Suz's car up on Ebay in a couple of weeks. We have just picked up a 30" LED bar to go on her new car, and I don't imagine I will use them on anything else now.

I want cibies or k.c daylighters but fetch silly money as they are the ultimate in my opinion

If I ever came across a set id have to fabricate a nice a bar of the winch tray so they sat just nicley

There were 2 sets of Cibies on my tarted up Escort, those little spot you've got look great. What are they?

Madmark · 31-10-2015, 23:08

They're made by ring I've had them yonks but are very deep and that's the key to good spot lights. Won't be as bright as my led bar but will have a longer projection of light

After talking to a few people on the net it seems to be LED's give out a lot of light short range but it's the good old spotlights that give the range so I think you will now have the best of both words

Cheers, I think an upgrade of standards is in order.
