Default Re: Spot lights for cars, not 4X4

One downside of leds is colour temperature. Not many, if any, are below 5000. The good stuff will be around 5000-5500. The cheap stuff is around 6000-6500. The higher the number the further toward the blue end of the spectrum, which is why there is so much reflection from roadside signs.

A good set of halogen spot lights will still cost you.

For most though, led technology has improved enough that they can perform well enough for the job required, and some are now starting to really challenge halogen and HID for distance.

It all depends on your budget, where you drive and how often you need the extra light and what your mounting options are.
