"I have ran these lights on my offroad 4x4's as reverse lights for the past 3 years and have not broken or had a bulb fail yet. I've now put them on all mine & wife's daily drivers, they are that impressive. Great for backing up to attach the boat or camper on the tow rig!!
Highly recommend these for value, quality, & overall clean appearance.

Small fog light

,
August 13, 2012
By The1
from Winston-Salem, NC
"Small, as I expected, AND that is what I hoped for. Will fit well in my grill without having to cut away original grill work. As bright as I expected, too, which is good for a small package. If you want a lot of light in a small package, this is for you."

sportlights

August 13, 2012
By breezy1
from Kelseyville, CA
"These lights were intended as hitch lights on my RV. They more than did the job. I'm going to order another pair for the rear of my Jeep. Very easy to install with the switches and wires that I already had at home. I'm not sure that they are bright enough to be used as off-road driving lamps. They certainly can be used for secondary lamps for on highway."

Truck Cap Lights

,
June 22, 2012
By USAF93
from Hampton VA
"I have an A.R.E. utility truck cap with a side opening tool box. I mounted these two lights on the lid so when I open the lid and flip the switch they light up the entire inside of my tool box. With the mounting brackets I can also swivel them out so I can work at night next to my truck. VERY bright. The picture shown does not have the lights installed but you can picture how I used them. I mounted them on the lid itself so when it closes the lights are at the top of the tool box. When I get home I will try to remember to take a picture with the lights attached."

"These put out a lot of light for their size and put that light down in a wide, even beam pattern. They are made from a very thin metal which may prove to be a problem if they rust, but for now I appreciate how light they are."

Excellent Reverse Light

By TheMrIss
from Miami, FL
"I have these lights setup on my pickup as reverse lights with a switch. They do an excellent job lighting up the night hitches. Also have this wired on my ATV as a reverse light. It has a nice slot to let out water and is very bright."

from Wareham MA
"i mounted these on a tractor as a back up light for plowing snow at night. Great overall product but if you mount two of them on one vehicle be sure to put them on more than a 30watt switch. i did and i blew up the switch twice before moving to a 50watt switch.
i would recomend to anyone who asked"

switch issue

"It would be best to run them off of a relay as opposed to a heavier switch."

Not bad, could be brighter

May 25, 2010
By GolfcartGuy
from Moscow, PA
"I bought 4 sets of these lights and installed them on my golf cart. They do not draw alot of amps and do provide lots of light. I only gave them 4 stars because I feel that they could be a little brighter and the beam is not very organized. For the price, they do serve their purpose."

"These are great lights for the price, im currently looking to replace the 55w bulbs with 100w bulbs so they are a but brighter but they are very bright as they are. I think the 100w bulbs would work just fine since these have a metal housing."

Work Great

May 3, 2010
By oreaare
from Crystal, MN
"I bought these to put on the back of my 05 sierra for a little extra light when working and when hooking up to a trailer. They work excellent and the price is right. I read a lot of these reviews and everyone is talking about relays. I just ran straight from the battery and put a fuse in the line with a switch in the cab. Much easier than relays and you can leave them on. Highly recomend"

Filled with water... they still work... for now...

By WorksWithHands
from Billerica, MA
"Pros: Price. Bright when paired. High quality look and feel. Thick glass lens. Adjustable mounting brackets.
Cons: Not sealed well enough - First rain storm they both filled with water. They still work, but I doubt they will work for long. Does not come with wiring.
This was my first order from Northern Tool. Great, simple transaction. But after all that said, I guess you get what you pay for."

Great Automotive lights

November 3, 2009
By bob456
from Westmont, NJ
"I put these lights on the back of my jeep, they are low profile and make for a really nice look. They mounted nicely under the bumper and provide plenty of light for backing up in areas that are not well lit. I installed them with a seperate switch to toggle them on or off but they could just as easily be wired directly into the existing reverse lights or headlights."

Great 2nd lights for Tractor

,
November 2, 2009
By CowwFace
from Colorado
"I purchased 2 sets of these for my Tractor, since the stock headlights do a GREAT job of lighting up the back of the front end loader bucket!
I mounted 3 on the ROPS by drilling small holes and tapping them. Each light draws about 8 amps, so I used a 30amp relay to power them. They throw alot of light out front for me and I'm planning on mounting the last light for the rear. I would recommend them."
