Hello all,
I'd like to add a front light bar and rear lights for night launching my small boat on a trailer.

Looking for recommendations of what and where to purchase.

Thanks,
Mark

I put an Auxbeam light bar on the front and Auxbeam cubes on the rear on mine a year ago. Very happy with them

I went with Opt 7 brand for pods and light bar, can't say if they're better or worse than anything else out there. Light bar on the roof has taken a beating and still works fine. Came with everything though, relays, inline fuses and toggle switch's.

I installed VisionX 4.5" light cannons on the A pillars looking forward, just above the hood and same brand rear auxilliary light Center of cab facing backwards. All LED and very bright, low amp draw and the Cannons you can change the covers for different needs yellow, blue or pattern, I use clear eurobeam it's like a combo fog and spot light they make durable products.

I went with a cost effective solution from Tractor Supply that I am quite pleased with...
Traveller 7.25In 36W Camo Light Bar SKU [HASHTAG]#115167399[/HASHTAG]
Mounted above winch on Strong-Made bumper ( only reason I got a camo light was a special sale, about half off)
I used the Traveller 2 in. Adjustable Mount SKU [HASHTAG]#116882599[/HASHTAG] to mount on the bar above winch

Winch1

On the rear I went with the
Traveller 15W Square Worklight SKU [HASHTAG]#116955799[/HASHTAG]
I modified the original front bracket to mount the rear light.

I needed to keep everything below the roof line to fit in my enclosed trailer, plus I didn't want lights in danger of being torn off or damaged by branches

Here is what I did, Cree 4" LED Cubes on back and 3" LED Cubes on ROPS. I have run out of room for Switches.

That's why I went with small basic toggle switches, the P5 just doesn't have enough dash room for a whole lot.

Me as well, simple light "on" toggle switches and mounted mine on the lower dash Dacia towards the power point. This area is a little out of the weather too.... mind you I only have 3 switches so far, forward lights, rear backup light and underseat cooling fan. Put a string of LEDs in clear vinyl tubing and mounted under the dash for in cab lighting, it has its own inline switch.

I got my light at Amazon. 60% off. came with all the harness. I put another switch on, but easy to wire up. but you need the factory harness plug that allows you to just plug the lights, the horn, the winch, and a backup light. The light has 35,000 lumens. cost $60 Canadian. Great light.

Mark I also put a 4000 lb warn winch on. I got the mount that is on top. KFI ? , keeps the winch out of most of the water. doesn't affect the temp. This week was 85 or 90 degrees. feeling a lot hotter. temp stayed the same.
