driving lights

We have the Roo Lites on our Paj, and are very hapy with them, The advice I got was that if you travel a lot at night, it might be worth the extra $, but these light up the road really well (and also the verge for wildlife etc)

G'day Brentos ,,
have just put a set of Lightforce 240s on our Paj ,, after the 170s the light does shimmer a tad on corrugations,, but for the extra vision I got ,, they get it for me ,, plus they are adjustable ..

All the best ,, neil ..Image Could Not Be Found

I have just put a pair Lightforce on my Prado _ They are exellent

to be honest mate both are bit pricy for me i usually go for narvas cheap good and have the clear covers big plus for out in the bush to have a cover on them that is clear.

Got Light Force on my Toyota over here and put a set of Roo Lites on my Pajero in Australia.
Very impressed with the whole roo lite deal, much cheaper and includes everything with easy to follow instructions.
I thought the quality was good and was very happy when I used them, really lit up the road as good as any other I have had.
Highly recommend them.
Cheers,
Dennis

Is spotties the answer? Well it depends what you are trying to achieve? They will give you great light when you have an open road or are off road.

We found that whilst our driving lights solved this problem, we also wanted more light on low beam. We found by upgrading the wiring loom and installing upgraded light enclosures, we were able to have stronger low beam lights.

We end result is that we now have 95wt low beams, 110wt high beams with this solution. Whilst we still have our 135wt driving lights, when we turn them on, they make very little difference to our normal high beam lights.

We can now see really well when on low beam when facing ongoing cars, and we have fantastic high beam lights for the open road.

The big point to remember is that the upgraded wiring lume is probably the most important upgrade. It makes a big difference.

I couldn't really afford the Lightforce, so I bought the poor man's copy, the Roo Lites.
Bang for the buck, they are excellent. Cost me $220 landed including the harness.
One of my better purchases :)

you soon forget about price if the product meets or exceeds your expectations. Your first night drive will also confirm your purchase (curse yourself for buying cheaper quality or pat yourself on the back and the night turns into day).
Never buy a product on price alone. You get what you pay for.

Brentos.......im on the road 7 days a week and a lot is night .......in my opinion ......lightforce xgts......better mounting system......ive had all sorts of lights......but there the best......if u can afford them...get xgt..hids......or get the hid upgade kit.for the xgts......$300.and there hids....and youll never need a another light again....cant go past them//

What Crazy Dog said in Spades.

I had my Roo Lites nicked by some low life.
...mmm...maybe they are that good if they're worth stealing!

BTW I had so called anti theft nuts on extended bolts. These don't well work so well 'cause the cretins can unplug the cable and twist the light around on the roo bar until the nut starts to slip so much it is easily undone with fingers.

Solution: Yes use anti theft nuts (about $20 a pair) and use a long bolt. Bend the bolt so the nut can not be unscrewed. or Araldite the length or the thread. Removal is easy if you need to replace...angle grinder! The guys from midnight spares are strangely reluctant to use an angle grinder on your vehicle, in your driveway at midnight. Funny that.

Roolite 180s. Great light. $195 from TJM
