Default Lighting

I want to install more lighting on my 2001 Ram Sport Off Road Edition because I don't like my visibility at night. I don't want to put a bar or anything on because I like my Sport front end being as clean as possible so I need help with the mounting. I was thinking about putting them on my side mirrors or similar to how cops have their spotlights. If anyone has ideas on how to mount the lights with them not taking up a huge amount of my front end I'd love to hear it. What would be the best type of lights too. They will mostly be used on roads as brights, but will be a lot more cautious with them around other drivers

You might be able to put some 4 in driving lights in the center round holes in your bumper. Might look slick with the factory fogs in the outer spots.

I'm assuming you've sanded all your housings and have good bulbs. Have you also thought about a relay kit? I've seen the difference they make, right here on DF.

The Hella 700ff's this guy has: https://dodgeforum.com/forum/members...sheenwins.html
look pretty nice.

Why not go led bar?

If you contact http://www.hanma-auto.com/products/c...oad-light-bars and say you're considering being a reseller and request a small purchase to review the product you can get some at dealer prices. But you can only place one order then you have to buy bulk. It's a great one time deal.

Otherwise buy it online. This company sells them. The 44" bar goes for $199.

To compare, your halogen headlights produce roughly 3,500 lumens (brightness) both headlights combined.
This 44" led bar uses Cree LEDs (great) and puts out 10,800 lumens. Pretty much 3 of your headlights (both sides) in a pure white light.
