Default Offroad lights on a budget

So if anyone has had their eye on offroad lights but cringe and the price like i do and cant justify spending 150 dollars per light for something you might only use a couple times a month i found a great alternative Pro Comp makes these lights in 5 and 7 inch for only $20 bucks a piece !!! and the wiring kit is only and additional $17 per pair ( one wiring kit powers 2 lights ) and they even come with nifty lil covers and seem to be pretty good quality and they def make night time day time

Nice baja rig for sure. I know also you can get 6to 7 inch hid lights on ebay for less than 100 a ligght, which is awsome price comparred to top quality hids that go for liuke 400. At 40 bucks u can't beat that for sure but its not hid also. Just a suggestion.

From what I understand, the Pro Comp lights are made by the same manufacturer in China that makes the Rugged Ridge lights and the Optronic lights that WalMart sells. Rugged Ridge will sell the same light for about $45, but Wally World is about on par with Pro Comp price wise. They aren't bad lights at all, the only negatives I've heard is the mounting hardware is on the cheap side and will rust on you pretty quick and the bulbs don't last the longest, but they put out good light and bulbs are cheap...

the bumper is the Mopar Ram Runner bumper its about 1200 bucks at you local dodge dealer takes about 1 month for it to be made n shipped and hell yea it can take a hit the skid plates are 1/4 thick steel and the bars are 2 inch mandrel bent and tig welded and the supports / mounting is 3/8 inch thick boxed steel and some how it manages to be lighter than stock when i was installing it just or **** n giggle i lifted the truck up by the bottom of the bumper and the wheels came off the ground and the bumper did not shift or bend what so ever, and no it does not affect the airbag the sensor for the airbag is in the grill just below your ram head
