Its a nice warm night so I took some pics of my add on lights. theres still a dark hole in front of the bucket, do you guys with overhead lights still have a shadow right in front of the bucket?

I mounted mine strictly with FEL use in mind. They're about 32" higher than the factory headlights, and pretty much eliminate that shadow. I tried them on the ROPS. Way too much glare and shadows to suit me.

It certainly looks like you have plenty of light. I think its hard to cover every spot with light. I just added a 40 LED light bar to mine. It seems to light the whole area up around the tractor mounted on the ROP.

What is the diameter of the lens? Where did you get them and how much?

I think there called 4 inch. All from amazon $25 they sell them single ,2 pack and 4 pack round or square. The rounds are available flood or spot, 27 watt.
Mine are flood style ,I dont know if i messed up the pattern by mounting them sideways but i cant see a way to move the lens so it is what it is.

Bandaidmd, that pattern looks fine in the picture. When I did quick and dirty mounts for the forward-facing lights they were strictly for mowing and in much the same position as yours and lsmurphy's. When we put the cab back on Saturday the forward lights were relocated to the brackets above the windshield. That made a big difference in the illuminated area.

Two rear lights are mounted on the inboard sides of the ROPS. They are aimed "crosseyed" so they light opposite sides on the ground.

I believe that two light pack from Amazon is the same one I bought. They are great lights , blinding white light and with 'Amazon Prime'(which my gf bought) shipping two day is free...

I make full use out of my Prime membership, not always the absolute cheapest but a lot of stuff is next day for me (amazon distro center in De. is only 25 miles away).
There building a new distro center here in MD and when they do prices will be going up 6% since they will be able to charge sales tax. ;-(

I don't think murphy has done his lights yet, that's my tractor in his post.

Im just over the state line from tax free DE.
Its where we shop out of convenience the tax free part is a bonus but anything that comes on the brown truck from within the state of md is taxed, so far any out of state stuff is still not taxed .

I put a 20 LED, 4000 LUM., light bar on top, to light up the front when the FEL is in the up position.

Added two 9 LED, 1450 LUM , FLOOD work lights on the rear.

Added two 4 LED 750 LUM , SPOT lights on the side, did not like having dark areas when working at night.
