4x4spud:
right here goes with an illuminating problem

i am now in the process of fitting a tubular bumper with a built in a frame i have also fitted a larger intercooler for my td5

what driving lights would people reccomend to fit on the a bar which give good lighting and wont block to much of the airflow to the intercooler also price may be a consideration as well

thanks fellow mudders

kizz81:
i used wipacs when i had spots on front bumper, cheap and bright

MudRat:
big lights are great, but may not equate to big illumination, i have 4 x 4" square Hellas on my rack and they are superb, http://members.mud-club.com/profiles/MudRat/gallery/90/0/b995d0a1b2f3c325a436093e15927b2c.JPG/  mind you at £35 each they aren't cheap!

marjan:
I have Wipacs on mine and they are cheap and cheerful but not great.

Terranosaurus:
All depends how much you want to spend, Cibie and Hella make great lights PIAA's are probably better still and light force by all accounts are fantastic. Personally I've got a mix of Hella 2000s and Cibie Oscar+s and Turinis. I've done many years of road rallying (in the dark) and decent lights cost, they also last longer, don't rust have toughened lenses etc For once bigger does mean better (to a point) larger reflectors are better and more efficient than small ones but design still matters. You don't see many rally cars running round with Wipac or Ring lights on - they'll do the job but it all depends how much you're willing to spend and what you want of em.
