Roundeyes need rectangular fogs if mounted at the same level as the courtesy lights. Round if mounted at the level of the driving lights. I was told that my OCD.

Oh **** so I screwed that one up pretty good.

Dang, you're more anal about aesthetic **** than me.

Old school sealed beams, replaceable H4 bulbs

Okay, originally Cibie Z beam headlights and Cibie fogs. The metal cans on the fogs rotted out so replaced them with Hella fogs. Then a stone hit took out a Z beam so they were replaced with Hella, still a sealed unit with H4 bulbs. Updfitted them with higher wattage high beam bulbs, heavier wires and a relay.

Here are some better pictures of mine. Cibie iode 35. The bracket is a piece of flat aluminum that we heated up and bent into an L shape. It lays on top of the bumper bracket and bolts through the existing hole on top of the frame. The only downside is that if I decide to use my bumper guards, I’ll have to figure out another way to mount the lights.

Hella sealed beam conversions for high and low beam. 55w hids in the low. LED fog lights, led turn signals and markers as well. The pic doesnt do it justice, the color matches very well.

At one point my truck has lights up and down the bed rail my grandfather custom made. And on rear bumper. But most are broken. The rear headlights(one gone) are very handle while plowing. I'm going to replace them with the LED fog things on front top of bumper. The ones low on bumper too. I use those for wide angle lighting while plowing on property. If I were to plow roads I'd put the aimable headlight type. Then I am going to replace and put back the turn signal / tail lights up high over the cab, increased visibility is not bad especially for turns. And the headlights will eventually get projectors for the LED and the cab lights are new plastic covers.

My bad, none of my photos show the light up high I mentioned. It's like in the far edges of the rack that covers back window, with is missing on driver side. I will also install a Amber clear cab light for visibility while plowijng

Here's a picture of that light I mentioned. It's kinda cool and especially helpful for trailers. Never can have enough clarity in intended driving direction or stopping

True that. Too many morons texting and driving. The more attention getters you have , the better.

Current setup, likely to be permanent. Another set I got from hatchet. These are clear driving lights, I don’t know the brand other than KD stamped on the lens. I have them pointed out at about a 45 degree angle to be able to see deer better around my parents house.
