    Default Best looking place for my mini spots

    I got a set of Unity, fog lights, which will accept Unity's smaller spotlight lamps. (Muhahahaha, bright light ME will you! Take this!... J/K)
    I am thinking very seriously about putting a spotlight bulb in one or both of these at some point, for off road use, lighting up a work area, and for generally lighting up the country side at will. Don't worry, I don't plan on using them on the street unless I rig up a series/parallel circuit to dim them properly for on road use.

    At any rate, I havent been able to make up my mind which way they will look, and work the best. So, I snapped a few shots and thought I would put up my first attempt at a poll, on any message board. Keep in mind, these were just kinda propped up there and would be mounted just far enough back to keep them from being damaged when shoving stuff around with the pushbar.

    Thanks! The pics really do make it look better than in person though.
    The push bar, is a New Old Stock (N.O.S.) Item from the late 80's. Kee-Mee, was the name on the box. As I said, I like the push bar, but cannot recommend the seller.

    Deal! Since you'll only be needing one, let me have the other one.

    BTW: When are you planning to have the redneck shooting-fest that you mentioned a couple months back?

    #2 for the win. I want to put some spot lights behind the grill so you wont see em. Either that or a winch but I dont want the car to overheat from no airflow.

    I understand. Give me a ring some weekend.

    IMHO, #2 looks best.

    DoH!

    I should have gotten that reference. I always wished tuckers had taken off.
    In fact I kinda wish, hudson/packard/studebaker/ etc were still around. If there had been more competetion through the 60's and 70's the foreign car market would never have gotten as popular as they now are.
    Then again, that is just a theory.
