What are the differences between daylighter, slimlite, rally 800??? I would definetly want an 8" and want some long range stuff. I see you can get like a 100watt/200k candlepower or 150watt/385k candlepower??

Now, PIAA 520 is also good stuff but only 85watt

which do you recommend? Which one will be the clearest and which one can I see the farthest with, is what I care about. 85W piaa's v.s. 150W KC's I think would make a world of difference. I also saw some wanna-be KC lights that are 100 watt and say 200k candlepower with some amber angel eyes around the lens at walmart for $20 a piece on sale. They look something like this, not bad IMO actually:

I recommend the Rally 800 series light. They are 8" with plenty of power and made to take the abuse. The slimlites are only 6" so I won't even consider them. The PIAA are too small also, I think they are like 5-3/4" lights.
$690 for the light bar and 2 pair of Rally 800s is a good price. I can't find those lights anywhere for under $250 per set, not even on ebay.
If you like Hella like I do, I'd get the 8-3/4" Rallye 4000. They are about $269 per set, including wire harness, switch, relay, etc. But they're a b!tchin' light.
I can't afford either right now so I went with Hella FF1000s.

What made it such a pain? Reaching the bolts in the back? Would a 2nd set of hands make it easier?

PT,
Yes two bolts on each side are "Somewhat" hard to get to....
if you have big hands and fingers it will be a real Pain....
Also, one of the front bolts, lower outside is hard to get a hold of due to the "Plastic" front bumper. I did it by myself, I shoved a bunch of screwdrivers though the holes to line it up while I put the other bolts in.... Made it go quick... I am going to have a friend run all the wire and place the toggles should be all done next week.
Also.... Yup the slims are small, but for a hunting road or camp road they are fine up here, no open spaces like the Baja....
Plus the $$$$ of the bigger lights drove the price up to quick for me!
Time to go take some pic's
