Default off road lights...what new out there??

i definitely need some aftermarket lights on my 09
the headlights are not any better than my 99 were

i used to have 4 hellas mounted on the roof on my old ram
but i was thinking about mounting the new ones inside the grill
has anyone ever done this before ?

i am more than likely going to have a plow on this truck
so i might have a hard time mounting them anywhere on the front

any ideas , or suggestions , or pics of your set up are welcome
thanks

You guys probably has it installed already. Anyways, we sell HID conversion kits for your headlights and foglights. We have a website www.xenongate.com.
We have just finished designing our fog lamps. Our Fog lamps are different then the PIAA and Hella. Where they both uses halogen in the fog lamps compare to ours we use HID in the fog lamps. Our HID fog lamps uses 35W and it put out equal or more lights than halogen fog lamps.
We will have availablilty in mid March.

I can also be reached at 866-857-0005 ask for William

Well, if you want to do the same thing as your old one, you can go with like what this guy has. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/3rd-gen...christmas.html
Since you still have the 3rd gen bodystyle, the bar should definitely line up with your bed for mounting, or they will have them. Nice looking truck.

well i wanted to go with a setup like you had
but i also wanted 4 light, and they just were not going to fit inside the grill

so i bought a kc lightbar that will fit under the towhooks
and i can still keep the towhooks

and i did a lot of research and i bought 2 sets of these lights

they are 6 1/2" lightforce striker
100 watt with the upgraded Xenophot bulb 530.000 c/p output
2 spot lens, and 2 wide field lens

they are supposed to be pretty much indestructible
i lot of the baja guys run them

ill post some pics when i get them on the truck

Verry verry nice. Just wish I had deep pockets. I've hear those Lightforce lights are a pretty pennie!! Can't wait to see your set up, day and night pics please..
