OK..I know its not the prettiest...but it works. The headlights on my B7500 are worthless, and with the FEL, even worse. So I needed some lights for the snow season. I bought 2 LED 27w from ebay, and used some unistrut that I had on hand. Since I use the tractor for bush hogging and clearing brush, I wanted something I could remove easily, since they wouldnt last long in the woods. I tried them on the ROPS, but didnt like the glare that I got with the lights behind be. I notched the unistrut to fit over the FEL bracket, then attached with the FEL cross brace bolt. Wiring was a toggle switch on the dash, relay, and two, 2wire trailer plugs. To remove the lights, I just unplug, remove one bolt, and lift off. I could have made it prettier, but i settled for functional. Lotsa light for aroud $60 total investment.

You should warn you neighbors before heading out on the road they might call in a UFO sighting.

LOL..Those sucker ARE bright. I was going to go with 54w lights, which were almost exactly 2x the price of the 27"s. I figured Id try the 27's first, and if need be, I could double up later. I bought the "spot" instead of the "flood". Im pleased.

I like it! After all, you're looking for light for the winter, right? You'll get more light than I will, no doubt.

I put mine on over the last couple weeks - there's a thread for it. Mine are not rocket science, either.

All in, I had $70 in my project with 2 halogens. Your cost is great with LED, no less!
