Filled with water... they still work... for now...,
November 15, 2009
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."

Great lights for projects,
September 4, 2009
By SeniorJeeper
from Southern Michigan
"I purchased 4 sets of these lights and used 6 for a roof mounted light bar for my off-road Jeep. The lights are small enough to mount inside a 2" square aluminun tube and work great. The glass lens and metal housing is far superior to the plastic junk on the market. High quality and a very good price. The light bar is so good, my friends have asked me to build more for their vehicles."

Great light,
August 10, 2009
By Tacker
from Babb, MT
"Great light, NO INSTRUCTIONS or wire. I thought it would be a complete kit? I am on a search and rescue team and I use these lights to light up the area and so far so good. They have a vent or drain hole on the bottom which I believe helps. I am in the mountains so snow and ice are a concern. More to follow....."

excelent lights ,excelent price,
July 20, 2009
By Longshooter
from Burbank, Il
"I bought four of these lights, mounted two on my 2000 GMC Yukon to replace the OEM fog lights that had broken lenses. Mounted easily and look like they came with the truck. I mounted another under the rear bumper, it really lights things up when backing up to my camper to hook it up to the hitch. The last one I mounted to the camper's rear bumper, It really helps when backing it into a pitch dark campsite."

The Ulimate Lights,
November 17, 2008
By Fireman76
from So Cal
"I am a fireman who loves to go to the river. These lights are perfect for lighting up your trailer when loading or launching your boat. Even when you are hitching or unhitching your trailer. If you are like me and have dark tinted widows, they are the perfect aux. back up lights. Five of my buddies and three of my co-worker have purchased these lights, and I plan to order a set for Dad... Great Product! Great Buy!... Easy to install on a switch like I have done or just tap into your reverse light wire. These are a must for any truck or suv!

By woodcutter

"I use these lights to lighten my pole barn since there is no electricity to the pole barn. I keep a battery charged with a solar panel from Northern and they do a very good job of lighting up the work area. I used 2 sets of lights."

Brightly Inexpensive,
April 14, 2008
By RockRam
from Englewood, CO
"I am using this under my rear bumper as an auxiliary backup light. I wired it to a relay and switch. This little light will get all kinds of dirt and rocks thrown at its backside. So far, so good. The wiring is easy. The mount works really well for my application which is on a custom bumper. With the relay, the brightness has a good distance. The light has a nice wide pattern too. This little guy is very inexpensive for the light it throws.
Drawbacks - (keep in mind that it's very inexpensive) it's not completely sealed. Don't submerge this light. It would be nice if the wires were vinyl coated. Not sure how well the rear dust cap will hold up over time but, easy enough to remedy.

By icansee

"my trucks factory backup lights stink. using the supplied brackets and tapped holes, i mounted these lights to the side of my receiver hitch and wired them to the trucks backup lights. they work great, stay tucked in tight and inconspicuous, and really put out the light needed to backup and see where you're going."

"These lights are great! They were simple to hook up and the 55watt bulbs throw out alot of light and its all in a nice slim design. If you want a bright auxiliary light but don't want the gawdy, bulky look, then these lights are the ones to get!"

Good lights, great price,
February 7, 2007
By Anonymous
from Republic of Korea
"I am not disappointed with the lights. The brackets are strong, the case seems good, there is a good rubber cap on the rear to keep water and dust out. The lens appears to be glass. Excellent value.
It is also easy to change the H3 bulbs to another color or wattage.
I cut holes in my steel bumper, welded a quick bracket, and bolted it to an existing mount. The bracket arms on the lights allow easy adjustment."
