Bolt size to the light bar was too small
Allan key bolts did not fit my light bar... bummer but worth the money if it fits. If the bolts were a tad bit bigger it would have done the job.

Surprisingly bright for the price with a long throw center spot
I've got these mounted to the sides as work lights on my truck; they have a good wide but not too intense flood with a surprisingly good center "hot spot" from the spot optics. Way too bright to get a decent photo of with my camera (this shot is in full daylight, and it just clamps the camera down with the light on). The throw on the spot is actually really impressive - Ive got them aimed straight out, and they easily reach out 300 feet with some authority, and will dimly light an area out much further. MUCH further - I found out I could see the clear outline of deer along the treeline at 950 feet or so. That said, I do not have a lux meter on hand to test, so I don't know the actual lumens/brightness - but these little things throw like my old 1 million candlepower QBeam spot light, just with more spread and whiter light (they are probably 4,750-5000K, cool, clean white without much blue overtone).As to the possible drawbacks: the connection leads are fairly short, so you will have a splice very near them, and their stock wire is a touch thin and looks to be aluminum, but well insulated and simple to connect. I've got them on the end of a 20 foot run of 14g stranded wire (a cheap cheat on wiring - get a trailer light rewire kit - its fine stranded wire, and you get 80 to 100 feet of wire for what you normally pay for a single roll 25 feet long from many places - you just have to deal with oddball colors in some places). Mine are wired individually, so I can turn on each side separately as needed, along with the loading lights (the ones down near the ground on the body in the photo - everything is on in this photo). The truck's regulator likes to run at 14.5v, and they are rated to 24, but when it's only on battery they are not quite as intense (11.9v typically), so that's something to be aware of. They are not power starved when it is running though, so they are getting as much juice as they want for full brightness.Their brackets do make them a bit of a challenge to aim, like any light of this style, so that may frustrate some folks. It took me a couple tries to dial in my aim points, but as mine are mounted on angled plates, I have better access to the hex head machine bolts for up/down adjustment than a square on mounting would offer, so that may vary with your use. Lights come with a full set of hex keys, so you can aim them, tear them down to add additional sealant if you want to and so on (I have not had any issue with the seals after running them 2 months, we will see what winter brings).Like many led lights, their wattage is probably overstated, but give them big enough wire to pull power and they won't disappoint, particularly at this price.
