I got my safari bar today and I was actually looking into buying the pilot ones. I've had pilot fog lights before and they were pretty god for the price. I think the price for the hellas and the kc's are too high. 20 bucks for a set is fine with me. I think I might get the ones with the chrome housing versus the plain ones. I don't like the covers they give you and the covers for the hella are not cheap either. Thank for the advice. i have made up my mind.

I paid around 150 for the mount kit and the bar... I like the hella lights they are a good trusted brand. but who knows might end up switching later... I like lights i can run on the street also tho

Here's mine with some blue super street fog lights. I just custom fitted the brackets to fit the boltys for the pilot lights and used a bigger washer and viola. Whatcha think? Lights aren't working yet, project for next day off.

The thing that sucks now is that I have to go and buy a new wiring harness. I routed everything right (I've rigged up lights plenty of times) and when I flicked the switch, the switch lit up. So I knew that the power was going to the switch. Now, the drivers side light lit up, but the passenger side did not. I checked and rechecked for about 2 hours all the connections and nothing. I finally gave up and deemed it a bad harness. I'm going to stop tomorrow and buy one and then hook up all the lights on saturday. The harness for the fogs is in, just needs to be hooked up. I ran out of connections for extending the wires to the length.

Looking good!

I think I might want to re-ground all my lights... as they're currently grounded to my brushguard... and sometimes I need to go give it a smack for them to come on, lol. The guard's been doing some moving...

So how difficult was mounting?  Are the recover hooks still accessible through the gaurd?

  When I grounded my light for the safari bar, I found a stock ground right on the firewall on the drivers side right underneath the cowl strip.  I just put a connector on the wire and added it to the ground that were already there.
