lightforce 140 or 170?

Hello

i'm thinking of placing some (2) lightforce driving lights but I doubt about 140 or 170.
someone experience (and pictures).
Do I fix them best on bumper or grill?
Do they light best with the headlights or separate?

Thanks for comment

Sven

140's would look small on the front, unless you sink them into the grille like christyler has done. 170's are just a little smaller than the standard Land Rover spotlamps. 240's look good with an A bar around them, but would look huge without.

Mounted 2 x 140 LF on a defender and I must admit I was disappointed about the luminous flux of these Spots.
So I would take at least the 170's.

I am still looking for the best spot to put on my roofrack.
Not shure about round our rectangular...

No panic guys, didn't ask him out, just asked to come over and show his new spots.

We could discuss cabling Mr. Green
Still have to connect my roofspots

Depends if the light is blue or not, as I understand it from one bored afternoon in the office, you can have a blue fitting, or even a blue bulb, but if the light is "white" then its no problem. Think about those blue tint bulbs you get for example.

Do a google, you can read all afternoon and still not be sure, thats the beauty of law in this country, even the police can't agree on whats blue and whats not! (when it comes to non-flashing, once its flashing its definitely illegal unless you are deemed some sort of emergency vehicle or have the relevant licenses etc).

So what constitutes flashing? How fast you can flick them on and off? Confused
