... not anymore! In spite of temperatures down to -12C and a bone shattering wind I managed to get the wiring together.

Ive got my light bar and spots ready to wire up. Do you find they light up the bonnet and it bounces back into your face?

my 4 are above the bar and although the bonnet lights up, it dosent bounce back. Just be sure not to wash the bonnet

The bonnet does not reflect the light. But I can see the underside of the glass lenses and that light reflects into every little speck of dirt in the windscreen, as if you are wearing dusty sunglasses. I think I will have to put some kind of "upside down eye lids" on each light.

I mounted other, bigger lights standing, but that made the fuel consumption increase considerably. Haven't driven for long enough to tell whether these hanging lights are aerodynamicly better.
