Default Took the Hellas off the truck...

I won a bid on ebay for a set of stainless steel Dick Cepek 130 watt lights (the ones I told Ramhunter9 to get) and mounted them on my stainless grill guard.
I really didn't have an issue with the Hellas, and I know it's a simple matter to jump them up to 100 watts, but the black plastic housing just didn't go with the stainless grill guard. Great light for behind the grill, but not on the outside unless maybe you have a black bar to mount them on. I also liked that I could get them with red covers:

Sorry for the quality of this pic, but was after dark when I got done tie wrapping, and only used my cell. I'll get better ones tomorrow night...

They look good, definitely look better on the stainless guard than the black ones did.

Yeah, I actually got them for about the same price I paid for the Hellas, in addition to the 6" ones for the truck I also got a set in 5" to mount on the Jeep. I drilled a couple holes in the fairlead and mounted them right there. Just waiting on Warn to ship me the damn receiver for the front of the Jeep and that project will be done:

and sorry Blake, I ordered a second set of the Cepeks with red covers for another member who is replacing his Hellas with them and I'm using my two and his two on TOP of the Jeep... LOL...
