The covers are both spot beams. they didnt have a spread beam cover in stock when i got them.

i went for the light blue over the dark blue as the darker covers would have cut down the light penetration.

And i reckon the light ones look alright.

Hey Collin. Thanks for info. Could you tell me, shuold I buy any additional items like wiring , relay, switch etc. I simply dunno what's in the box & I'd like to be ready for installation when the parcel with lights comes so I want to buy additional stuff in advance.
Best regards.

Hey Bartman,

The lights come in the box and thats all except for some stickers and instructions on fitting. I bought mine from my ARB Dealer who has been looking after me with parts for around 20 yrs so i just purchased the wiring harness that he had there already made up with everything ready to go. I think there around 80 to 100 bucks. I'd rather pay that than stuff around for hours trying to make one myself. It comes with fuses, relays all that is needed, you just have to run the wires, and connect them up. Hope this helps.

Regards Colin

Hey Collin.
Thanks for advise. Fortunatelly I have bought in the same time ARB antifog lights (fitted to the bullbar) and I've received with them ARB wiring kit (probably the same as yours relay, fuse etc.) so I'll use it for my 240's. I think,I dont't need it for the antifogs becasue I'm going to plug them to the stock wiring (in the place of stock antifogs when I'll cut the bumper). I wish you nice weekend.
Best regards.
Bartman.

Hey Bartman,
The fog lights will just connect to the original wires but with modification to the connectors, just make sure you solder and heat shrink all connectors to stop corrosion. I think the harness kit should do the job for the spotties. Best of luck,

regards Colin

Hey All was told to use Mit. spot light loom to avoid wiring faults and or warranty claim issues.
It’s the same as the ones you can bye from the auto shop just a bit dearer but plugs straight into the original loom some where. What are your thoughts :?: :?:
Cheers Ratcomm.
See you,

Given the copper shortage that must have been on when they designed the Triton I would think that any aftermarket product from a brand name manufacturer will probably have more copper in it than the rest of the car.

Frankly I don't trust any of them to get full voltage to the lights, especially if you're running high wattage halogens, so I make all my own looms for accessories.

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?

Couldn't agree more 5th. Factory looms are designed down to a price rather than up to a standard. :x
