i wanna put lights in the wings too but lightforce are just so exspensive compared to other lights and the 140's just happen to be the only light that fits...maybe a 150 will fit but i have being told it wont

Yea Putsy, I've had a thought about the same thing, with the lightbar and 140's in the wings, it should work pretty well and nothing will look out of place, it all suits....
But the lightforce 140's in a HID are worth $700, it's alot of money for such a small light!!

I don't need HID's, but having the HID head lights and the LED light bar I thought having halogen 'yellow' spot lights it wouldn't work well with rest of the 'white' lights....

Dont go the Blue filters....I got the Crystal Ice Light Blue Filters and wish I had the clear ones instead.

I had the clear ones on my XGT's on my 03 hilux and the light was so much nicer through clear than Blue.

Each to their own. The blue ones are supposed to give better light penetration through bad conditions like heavy rain.

Yea i certainly like the config that 'putsy' put together for me, i think it will certainly be a go'er! Though ill fit the light bar on the flat section for now and take the rest as it comes...

Honestly the toyota bars are shit, i guess they serve there purpose though but are just terrible in all ways! Ive been wanting to change my bar over for months, and finally got around to it :D

Now I know where you get all your money for your mods. You eat steel and shit bullbars and sell them to Toyota. Now that's ingenuity!!! :)

Well done Jack. She's looking good.
