I've seen those square LED floods before and would like to get a set for some extra reverse lighting as well. You've got a lot of nice lights on your truck!
This post made my week. My brother owns a line painting company, and my parents let him practice in the driveway. BTW, I honestly love seeing your truck/posts.

The 24w are bright, but obviously are only as bright as one of my 48w.
If you do get them though, please, for the love of god, get the round ones. They look SO much better. I had the 24w ones on my bumper for a while before switching to 48w. HUGE difference. (Started with 18w, went to 24w, put 27w in grille, then got 48w. Put all extra pairs on the reverse bar XD)

Here's some pics for you guys, take in mind that these show VARIOUS stages my truck went through in the one year I owned it:
