and how much did they set you back? I have been wanting those lights too but as bad_regilion mentioned they are prone to getting busted..

i think i got quotes for about $250/each for those lights and would want them protected first.

they are pretty strong actually, probably 100% stronger than stock lights and i didnt pay $250 a light, my mate owns a auto electrical shop and i got them for what he pays for them which is $117 a light but shhhh haha

I've had mine for about 4 years.

They were fitted in an angle frame top and bottom, then I welded angle on each side to prevent them being stolen and damaged when reversing into trees.

Awsome lights.

You can get them new and cheap on eBay. I got 3 sets and the cheapest I got a set for was $107. Do a search on hella duraled 2379. There is a never ending supply of them there.

i put black vinyl over the red end caps coz the red stood out to much, i think they look better than stock anyway
