I have been running some $9.99 a pair Harbor Freight lights on the front of my bumper, but recently pulled up a little too close to a concrete parking lot light and shattered one.

So my question is, Where are you guys locating additional lighting in the front? And is the best place for rear lighting just to cut a couple openings in the rear bumper?

I'm curious to see what's been done. The moving grill makes the installation more complicated.

 

For the rear, Sheriff420 has a nice setup (search his posts, or wait for him to reply). Here is another option https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...-pictures.html

For the front, do you have factory fogs?

 

I have aftermarket fogs in the two holes. They truly are fogs, so they don't do much for range. My headlights are pretty pitiful, especially when some HIDs make it look like my lights aren't even on.

 

Are the headlight lenses yellowed ? You can fix that.

Only reason I asked about the factory fogs, is because I have a set I'll sell.

 

I got lights out the wazoo, so maybe one of them will give you an idear:

130 watt lights on the grill guard:


Made a little light mount out of a piece of 2" square pipe and a piece of flat stock for the rear (these here ones you'll notice the switch on the left, when switched off, they are backup lights, when switched on, the are on):


Light bar (again 2" square pipe and some flat stock):


Drilled a couple holes in my fairlead (also 130 watt lights):


and I built this here little deal for surf fishin where I put some lights on it (again, if you look above the right light, you'll see a switch. I have a marine grade 12v outlet on the thing too, so I can manually switch the lights off but retain power to the outlet):


Obviously I like to have a lot of light...

 

I might be interested in them, PM me.

 

i have a set mounted behind my grill and they help with nightime visibility

 

$20 Walmart lights (Pilot brand I think) in the bumper. $25 a pair 100 watt Rally off road lights on the brush guard, two from Walmart and two from Ebay. and the reverse lights are a $15 set of Walmart lights (Pilot brand I think) with home made skid plates under them to protect them as well as block water when the road is wet.
I would like to get a set of the Hella 500's but I just haven't gotten around to it. Mine are plenty bright but I've heard that it's hard to beat the Hella 500's.
For the front you could do like another member, Iwhitne, and make a light bar to mount the lights on if you don't want a brush guard. or just buy a bull bar.

 

Are those walmart brand or rally's brand lights any good?

 

The lights in the brush guard are Rally, I just got one set from Walmart and one off Ebay.
They're pretty bright but they're spot lights and not flood lights, that's why I have four instead of just two. I have two pointed straight and the other two go out to the sides of the center beams. Those combined with the lights in my bumper make anyone that high beams me regret doing it. It normally just have to click them on for a half a second then back off for the high beamers to kick their brights off.
