[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1722660, member: 21926"] I sported a pair of Kawell LED bars behind the grille for about a year plus. First, they’re about half as bright as a comparable B/D or Rigid LED bar of similar stats. Second, they have no comparable warranty. B/D lights are super expensive, but you do actually get what you pay for. Third, the Amazon class lights claim to have weather proofing, but they aren’t. They’ll intake water and eventually fail. You can seal with silicone periodically to stave this off. My advice, after having done both: [B]buy once, cry once[/B]. If you sell the truck, you can always pull the B/D or Rigid lights and repurpose them, or sell on the 2nd hand market. I’d have saved some money and effort by just springing for the expensive lights like others here told me to early on. Did I listen? No. Should I have? Yes. I’d have saved at least 1 x stock Raptor KO2 tire worth of money and then some, not to mention the labor. Think about this. [/QUOTE]
