light bar vs PIAA or KC lights on roof.

I'm going to have a light rack built by WSI but I was wondering about the pro's and cons of a light bar vs having 4 KC or PIAA lights on the roof. I have seen a bunch of pics of a light bar mounted on the roof but not to many with the round lights. Does anybody have any pics of a set up like that?

Here is a couple of pic for you of a seven round light roof mount set up I run.

There is no need to have massive lights anymore with the advent of LED technology. It is slow coming, but LED lights will replace almost every other lighting source and do it better, cheaper, more reliable, and last longer than the vehicle that they are placed into duty.

No, you will just need massive amounts of LED bars, ala BJ Baldwins TT, very cool stuff but not cheap. I like LED's and currently run them on the front bumper, have a bumper redesign in the works and will increase the size of the LED bars. Up top I am going with a new set of 70watt HID carbons in a new mount. very very bright and long range, plus I still like the look, call me old school. lol , but you are correct the last evolution of high end large LED bars are very good.

Got any shots of how that is actually connected to the roof?

Sure, there is a tab welded to the cage that comes out the roof. An 6061 alum arm bolts to the tab and sets the bar out over the windshield.

That is a sick set up... Really like the round lights on the bumper

Thanks, I really like that look too!! We moved away from the round lights on the bumper to improve airflow into the cooling system, but do like that look a lot. Will still most likely run them at Snoball...right now they are mounted on our support dually and look bad ass up on the rack above the cab.

I know this is old but if this poster is still here can you or someone else please explain this light setup. I would like more information on which exact lights these are. What beam patterns and types of lights are used where on this truck and why.

Most specifically what are those two center lights on the bumper that look blue? What are they for? I am guessing the two amber ones are fog lights.

Just some general infor, they are KC 70w pods, not sure on the patterns. The blue covers you see on the bumper lights is for the snow. Blue is one of the best colors to use in snow i believe. Hopefully someone else can also chime in
