FFS! there were about ten posts by the time I'd written thatFFRR 2017 4.4SDV8 Autobiography. Cost so much I must be mad!
D4 HSE 2012 Like a second wife, more expensive but goes better! I almost cried this time!
D3 HSE 2006 (Almost 8 years together, true love)
Land Cruiser VX 1994 11 years together, wife cried when I p/ex'd for my D3
No, Iain has saved me from making a terrible mistake by bringing Lightforce hope to my life I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Why would you want lights with plastic lenses?

Do you mean plastic as in the existing plastic front of the D3 headlights? 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
Why would I want glass? Have you seen the abuse lightforce lenses will take?I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I'd be very interested to see how much light 4 x 140s on the roof will kick out. Obviously less than the bigger lamps but still worthwhile I would hope. Wonder if I would be better off getting 2 x 240 XGTs on the bumper instead I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

As with all these things, it's down to personal taste, and long live that..... In my most humblest opion the Hella's look far tidier and smarter than the LF's on the G4 rack. I'll just assume others disagree to save all that posting...
I've removed the shroud/air dam from the front of my Expo rack and plan on mounting any lamps on a bar/bars extending forward from the underside of the rack. The 140s appeal on size, but the extra inch on the reflectors of the 170s (and the more powerful lamp) make a hell of a difference in light output.
Hmmm, perhaps 2 x 170s with wide angle covers on the outside and two with spot covers in the middle....
Look forward to seeing the pics Stu. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

the only small thing that I slightly dislike about the LF's is that damn great 'Lightforce' emblem across the front but I suppose that could be removed?
If I could be ar$ed of course... and theeeeennn......???

I prefer the look of Warns on the expo rack and love the High / Low switch although its not High / Low
I had LR ones on mine and although the light was good they were just to big.
Now I've changed to a Front runner rack and took the opertunity to change to light force as for out put CT has upgraded the bulbs in his perhaps an option?
BTW I'd love HID ones just cant justify it to myself
Also was bidding on the Warns as I'm gonna bulid / rebuild something soon
