if u want do what im doing save u money seriously. the 130 kit is what about almost 200? my 100 watts were $109 bucks... and now i just spent 8 bucks and have 130 bulbs. if i didn't have the 20 bucks off it would have been 28 bucks with shipping. so thats what about $140 bucks total? thats about 40 bucks cheaper or more? next time i buy lights im goign to get 55 watt flood lights and switch out the 55 watts and put in my 100 watts bulbs... be ****ing bright as hell!! see everything its bad enough i drive with high beams and the kc lights on and can barely read the signs cuz they reflect so much ahhaha. yea i like to see at nite! not afraid of the dark just like to see.

lol did the same for my roof lights bought $10 lights and swapped out the 55w for 4 100w bulbs totalling 20 bucks .. trust me i can see the grill lights are coming out soon. gonna remount them somewheres else and swap them to 100w
while we're on the topic of offroad lights dose any one know if you can wire in something aftermarket like light force to the factory fogs

i see that now... lol well if no one else jumps on this deal soon u can always do what i did. if u get the 100 watt kits i do not beleive u need to change the wiring or relay since its a universal wiring kit if u wanted the 130s.

I think I spent in total 100 bucks for all my lights wiring,(keep in mind I had to run a lot of wire from box to cab to engine bay) relay, bulbs, fuse, switch, my suggestion shop around see what you come up with before you go drop big bucks on big names.

exactly reason i got my KC lights were one they were on sale from 140 to 109 plus its a kit and they have the 23 year warranty which is great even tho u bearly will have to ask for it. but yes there are ways to get the same housing and stuff cheaper if u know what ur doing.

my buddy has a 91 s10 he bought 2 lights with 55w bulbs there not that abd but there on his roll-bar we got from a 98 dakota which fits nicely in his 8 foot bed. i told him to but the cheaper ones same housing as mine for 15 bucks each and all he had to do was get a relay a switch and 100 watt bulbs. but im going to be helping him make a quick disconnect so he can take the roll-bar off to use his bed. aslong u know what ur doing u'll spend less.
