Help me choose my Piaa Lights

Which ones would you pick?

or


These will be going on my black bull bar on a black Titan. I think I am leaning towards the clear ones.

They are not as full featured as the Piaa's ie. Ion Plasma, high and low beams, LED parking/style lights etc. They are cheaper though...

I picked the clear type.

A bit ago I came across some lights that would not only provide illumination down the straight line but also provide around the curve illumination!

Could come in hand on winding mountain roads.

automatic cornering lights

Those are going to be for two different driving conditions. One (the top) will project an amber beam, the bottom will project a "white" beam. You should pick a light by determining your needs and not just how it looks on your truck.

Actually...they are both duel stage lamps just swaped around. Plasma High or Plasma Low with both clear highs or lows respectivly. I'm pretty sure they will perform very closely.

Clear High and Plasma Ion Low beam with Blue Reflector or Plasma Ion High and Low beam

Re: Help me choose my Piaa Lights

titangold,

how easy was the install? did you have any fitment issues? some of the people that reviewed the WAAG had issues with fitment but none were directly related to the titan model.

did you have to remove your tow hooks? does it work in conjuction with the factory front skid plate?

where did you buy it from and how much?

do they come with light mounts? are your aux lights mounted to the frontrunner or to the truck?

thanks.
