Before I go ahead and spend money on 4x roof mounted lights, i was woundering what you guys think.
Iv currently got ARB IPF headlight and highbeam upgraded lights being 80/110watts and ARB IPF 65watts bullbar lights being a driving and a spot (extreme sport ones).
What combination would you recommend for my roof?
All spot, all driving or 2x of each?
Thanks, Damo.

I'm going to put spots inline with the middle of both front seats then the spread beams in the middle...

I'd suggest you've aready wasted enough money on inferior lights. Rip the rest off and throw on a couple of Light Force XGT's. You won't beleive the difference.

That said I run 2 x Light Force 240 Blitz on the bull bar and 2 X Narva spreads on the roof. The Light Force with clear lenses are so bright that the reflection off road signs actually dazzles you. I found putting blue lenses on fixed this. The Narvas are a fantastic spread beam light and fill the gaps the Light Forces miss on the left and right of the car very nicely.

Another alternate is Light Force 170's on the roof rack with your spreads on the bar. The light output from the 170's is about 80% of the 240 and XGT, only problem you'll have is reflection off the bonnet and bar.
