    Thanks.


    I had to look twice to realize what I was seeing. They blend in very well.

    So KC has officially become the light brand for my rig.

    Got some Cyclones back around Christmas, they got installed and wired up today.

    Damn these little guys are bright. They help me see all the miles of dirt I have collected.

    I'm gonna be doing an article write-up in the next month or two about our Cyclone lights. I know some of you on here are running them, so I would love to hear from you guys what your thoughts are on them, some of their benefits, maybe even some downsides to them if you have em, and some uses for them (don't be afraid to go out of the box with it). I have ideas for the following uses for them so far: rock lights, under hood lights, bed lights, camp/RTT lights, turn/reverse/brake lights for ATVs, UTVs, and buggies (or highly built Tacomas as someone else on here has done).



    @Phoosa @jeff b and @ anyone else running the cyclones!

    Pro: they are bright as hell
    Low amp draw
    Compact size
    Lightweight


    Con: they are blinding when you stare at them accidentally

    I have thought of mounting some to the hatch on my camper shell for area/camp kitchen/shell lighting

    Really wanting a pair of the Gravity or Pro LED spots to replace these PIAA halogens that I'm less than trilled with behind my grill, get something that looks traditional round but will throw some actual light down the road. @Taylor@KC HiLiTES - wouldn't happen to have a used pair sitting on a self somewhere without a wiring harness would ya? ;) -- can't blame a guy for askin.

    KC Lite junkie checking in here. Got me a couple if amber pods to use as dust lights for the rear. They are hooked to a strobe relay and work really well. Again the build quality on these lights is simply awesome!20170806_173748.jpg

    Finally got around to taking some pictures! Got my KC LED Gravity fogs installed before I moved here to Virginia temporarily. Totally worth every penny, and can't speak highly enough of @Taylor@KC HiLiTES for being extremely helpful and quickly responding when trying to get it installed.

    I am quite pleased with my own KC HiLiTES 6" slimlines, stealthed in behind my T-Rex replacement grille. BAMF provided the radiator support bracket to hang the lights from. This cleans the front end up significantly, in not having a set of driving lights just bolted on the bumper, "out there", and potentially getting damaged.
