@@JKGearandGadgetsI gotcha! I'm upgrading my headlights to the JW speakers and contemplating the Trail 6's. Also was thinking of the Baja Design OnX6 10" light bar. Then I saw your Naja Design video with the LP6's. Made me re evaluate again! Since the LP6's have a high and low setting...should i just put the money into them instead of the Trail6's?!?! Like you said...good lights arent cheap. Trying to spend wisely.. :-)
One thing that I noticed right away is that the amber light spectrum is much easier on your eyes for long distant driving at night. Also saves some of your night vision. Incredible lights.
Great to see a new video, Those amber lights put out so much more light than I ever would have thought. Thanks for showing the side by side comparison!
Been running S2 Sport clear driving combos as reverse lights for probably a year now and absolutely love them! with a super scratched and faded rear window i can see soooo much better out the back with them and makes backing in places at night incredibly easy
We run Rigid fogs on the front bumper, and set of dual Quadratec flood and spot cubes on the front window pillars and Quadatec cube floods on the rear bumper. We also have a set of generic rock lights, but we are planning to change them out soon. All auxiliary lights are run through a sPod. We do a lot of night wheeling in the desert, and this setup seems to work well for our purpose.
I use KC 3" cubes with LaminX amber films on my a pillar alligned to follow my headlights in rainy/foggy weather, they work excellent. I use 7" round auxbeam driving and spot combo on my mopar light bar very powerful light great for offroad. Thr auxbeams are heavy with a combined weight of 14 lbs lol had to get a friend to weld reinforcements where the bar connects to my frame 😁 in order to stop the light bar from shaking when hitting bumps. Both sets of lights are holding up well considering all the salt sand and whatever else they mix in during winter months. I am also running highbeam offroad headlights. I installed them in September and so far they have been excellent. Went with the drifter series saw those on your channel. Love that they are lifetime replacement and sae dot approved. Great light output pattern and cutoff when alligned properly also when the highbeams are used they work great sending straight spot beams straight down the road just like anyone would want love them.
I love your videos. Including your wife and daughter is so awesome. The fact that you're a family oriented guy makes you that much more likable to me. I'm very new to the jeep community and I'm learning a great deal from your videos. Thank you.
Nice comparison of white and amber. I have 2015 JKU. I put KC 6" gravity pro's on the A pillar, KC Gravity pro headlights. And I just got a Baja Designs S8 10" amber bar for my front bumper. That light is freaking bright! I like the light spectrum and the fact you can change to clear lens if you want to. Amber is the go to out west in the dust.
Mounting the S2 low like you did on your truck bed is the way I go. I had them on my JKU's rhino rack roof rack and holy smokes.....way too bright on the eyes when you look at your jeep. I use a pair of squadrons made with a wiring loom for the JK which also fits into the fog light position on the AEV bumper. My favorite lights. Lights up the sides and slightly forward enough for safely driving at night with wildlife.
Great video, great lights….. Your video was very good, good attitude, good pace, good camera stability, overall an A++ ! I like there cable end connection’s
The lights your running amber or white are awsome... I know i can't decide on either one cuz they both are awsome and they both have there purpose so if anything i would have to have both lol... Keep the videos comin...
I have my Amber Baja Designs 45w mounted on the cowl - near A pillar. They help in cutting through snow/fog particulates before hitting vertical field of view. That’s why the Ambers go at or near eye level IMO. Next, the flood beam (Clear) driving lights (got my 75w lights from Quadratec) go at bumper height, because the purpose is to sweep wider and longer than running just headlights alone. That is to say that I’m basically running the same setup as your Red JK. 👍🏻
Just discovered your channel. I'd say Amber! The nice thing about Amber is you can use them in the warmer months when your camping etc and they act like a bug light the don't attract bugs as much as white do.
I've decided to go Amber lights and I have a cheap set of harbor freight halogens on the Jeep now. Going to upgrade later to a more permanent setup with better wiring. But even the 55w halogen ambers make a big difference over just the headlights and fog lights.
I’m really digging the amber light set up. Right now I’m running KC Apollo on the pillar and KC Fogs on the pumper; along a 4inch light bar under the rear bumper.
Good vid I’m debating on just the amber lens cover or switching out the lens for a full amber so, glad I got to see it upfront because I would like to change back and forth without taking out the lens and putting the clear back on and vice versa.
I have found that a combo of amber and white works well in the dust. Just white reflects to much dust and light reflecting on the windshield. Shows dust to the point it is hard to see . Though being from Arizona I'm a KC fan.
i'm a fan of rigid lights. i'm also a fan of 'buy once, cry once." just got amber lenses for my DOT fogs for driving in the dust... IMHO it's easier to see amber lights through dust than white.
I have cheap blaze lights around 30 bucks a pair up by their windshield. Just purchased cube lights from Harbor freight they were not expensive either and both are extremely bright. So far the only ones fogging up are the blaze. I’ve been running them on my jeep for a few years “blaze“, and so far they have not failed me except for the fog up. Those are awesome but extremely expensive, Too much for my wallet. I do like the amber for fog and snow.
Finally ordered my JTR in a manual gearbox! Super excited. I believe Baja Designs also has a LP9 I heard it’s insane in the driving combo!however the LP6s look way more proportional on the Gladiator, probably would go with those. Haha all the Jeeps look great man! Keep the content up!
I really like the back up lights. I think that's what I will do next. But going to wire to one of the 4 switches in dash. And go with the amber a pillar lights.
Not to discredit your old videos at all, but I hope you know that it's not going unnoticed when you are sprinkling in some of the new editing and style. Enjoying it Ben!
Jordan Goddard his old videos sucked, he knows it. I think he has said it before. They always had good knowledge and good installs but Ben is not a videographer or youtuber
So th 4"pods come with wiring harness,or can Yaoundé buy one, o think I owed oiy durumh tfja part. Nice jumper I went to builddoiu a gladiator with a pop up hoof and pai,ted beige.have fon otu threr skids.
I've a 90 YJ and trying to get all my lights square or rectangular as possible.so....theyre harder to find than you think.i found all of my square lights on amazon.your video was aswome by the way
Great video as always. When I bought my JK 8 months ago it had some cheaper led pods and light bars on it. Still does but have been looking for upgrades. After seeing this video I know what brand I want to go with now. Just have to figure out which ones I want.
Benjamin. Awesome review. thank you. I have some questions though... sorry. And you may not know the answer so no worries if you don't. I'm getting started on lighting. This was definitely helpful. However, I wish they would have sent you a squadron sport to compare to the squadron pro. Are you able to tell a difference from the smaller ones they sent you? Are the pros worth almost twice as much. Say for an A-pillar light. I'm looking at doing white a-pillar in either a sport or pro and then adding amber LP6 on the bumper next. But trying to decide if I save my money on the A-pillar or get the top of the line since it will be a bit for my LP6. Thanks!
If you plan on adding LP6s in the future i would say go with the sport for now. There is a big difference between the pro and sport though. On the LJ, we installed the pro, and on the JK sport. The camera doesnt pick up the exact difference, but the pros are noticeably brighter. But, like i said above. If you think you will add LP6s in the future then the sports would be great for now, and then with the LP6s, it will be insane
Of ride a 1017 cb500x ind I need someone hepyshes good lights ,I just want to see a little furtherdown the Road sides of thr road I was thinking a combo of yellow end wheat. Thr S-1 if high on the list for hie small they are,I could slawys add I yellow pair later. Sorry in need to follow to sbed ima lill hammered
Anyone know if the lp6 can be connected to a switchpro? Or does it need a rocker? Wasn't sure if it would take up two spots on the switchpro for high and low? Ordering both regardless, but Wasn't sure how it worked..
Was starting to wonder if you'd left us lol! I've using Xprite lights and the lesser quality Amazon stuff. It's been getting me by adequately. Once I'm done with the mechanical upgrades, axles and such, then I'll invest in higher quality lights. But until then... great video!!
@@JKGearandGadgets I figured as such, but c'mon 4 full time jobs should be easy lol. I'll be patient I promise. Still looking for some LJ vids too haha.
Awesome review Ben! I have been re-watching this video to compare the amber vs. the white in the LP6 Pros driving combo. I may go with white and then add the Baja Designs 10" S8 light bar in amber above the winch on the winch guard bar.

I wish TH-cam would allow me to put my pictures on all my equipment that I worked on and spent all my hard earned money to save Virginians. Some people get lucky and you are one of them. Cover your lights. You may pass Virginia inspection with a hook up out in the country of Virginia
Fantastic lights. Little spendy so I'll need to buy one at a time. Do you know if they are still honoring the GAG discount? Yes they are. LP6 Pro rock guard covers are now available for these lights.
might be a good idea to swap the mounting fasteners over to stainless tamper/theft resented. those expensive lights are too tempting for the mid-night auto parts crowd.
Sorry for any confusion, the discount code is now JKGAG10
JK Gear and Gadgets how much u want for the old rigids off the jk ?
What brand is ur front bumper on the gladiator
Sorry for the repost but here's the question - DO you need the trail 6's anymore??
kawlreaper these are a lot brighter than the trail 6 lights. A lot brighter. But that doesn’t mean my trail 6s are useless

I've been seeing those driving amber lights on the gladiator glad you made a video
I installed black oak 2 inch amber pods in my bumper. With JW Speaker headlights it is like 4k high definition while driving.
Great video, great lights…..
Your video was very good, good attitude, good pace, good camera stability, overall an A++ !
I like there cable end connection’s
The lights look incredible ben! Not only in the lighting aspect, but how they look good on your jeeps!
Amber all the way for fog/snow
I like the LP 6 and my regards to your girls. I'm currently running diod dynamics and oracle taillights and tailgate lights on a 4.5" lift on 37s
Not running any yet. I have been waiting to get a set. Just wasn’t sure what I wanted. Thank you so much for this video. Very helpful.
I've heard good things about Baja Designs. It's nice to see some in action. Thanks Ben!

Perfect timing, I was just thinking of purchasing this month!
OMG ! Just went to the website and saw the prices ! They are 3 x more expensive than what I thought expensive was. I guess I learned something. WOW.
Yeah.. 😬. These are the TOP of the line lights
Holy hell. There's like 4 grand in lights in this video lol
Welcome back Ben, was getting ready to send out a search party for you. It has been a while since you dropped a video.
I have quite a few coming soon! Been busy doing house projects.
THANK YOU for the discount code! JKGAG10 still works! Big fan of you two and I appreciate your content!
Just discovered your channel. I'd say Amber! The nice thing about Amber is you can use them in the warmer months when your camping etc and they act like a bug light the don't attract bugs as much as white do.

Amber would do great in the snow out here in the PNW!
I would recommend a driving combo low (amber) and spot high (white), less hood glare and imho best of all worlds.
those light look awesome. I agree the amber look best much easier on the eyes at night.
Thanks so much!! This solved weeks of going back and forth for me. I’m getting some amber squadron pros right now!!
Great video, and very good timing. I have a bud I wheeled with last weekend who was running the amber LP6's and they are absolutely wicked!
I’m really digging the amber light set up. Right now I’m running KC Apollo on the pillar and KC Fogs on the pumper; along a 4inch light bar under the rear bumper.
Awesome video Ben as usual!! I'm definitely going with Baja Designs lights when I'm ready for lighting. Thank you for the video!
Thanks I’m going bought the pros with the wide lens in white can’t wait to put them on my tj
I went old school with kc highlites apollo pros on top LCD a frame hood 4 inch led... and I really like those amber lights you've got...up front...👍

better alternative to big noisy light bars

Haha all the Jeeps look great man! Keep the content up!
The LP9s are sick!!!! Do them on the JT!
Great video, I've been running rigid for a few years but have been slowly switching to Baja designs.
They look so clean i like your install
Might have to get the amber lights for heavy rain/snow/fog, love my LED light but they aren't great in those conditions.
I really like the back up lights. I think that's what I will do next. But going to wire to one of the 4 switches in dash. And go with the amber a pillar lights.
Not a huge fan of light bars but the Baja designs lights all look incredible....going to put those on a list for a future purchase....lol!!!
I'm a fan of amber flood white spot. That being said I don't use spot that often
I see best with Amber/Yellow lights than any hue white light.
Green works really well too(best for snow covered)
You guys are so cute......and the most informative Jeep channel .
Another awesome video! Actually answered some of my questions on amber vs white! Thanks bro
Those amber LP6's are nice. I have some KC amber lights up front and combo rigid spreader series amber halos with reverse lights in the bumper.

It wouldn't be a bad idea for you to do a matblack wrap on your hood to cut out some of the glare from the lights
I'm new to the jeep world. I have a Gladiator. Sport with halogen lights. Am I able to just change the light bulb with a led bulb
TWO Sets of the P6 Amber Driving Combo SOLD!!!! Both our Jeeps will love them. This way no 50" light bars ever, they just are too much on a Jeep
Maxima led headlights on the xj. Lockers before lightbars, so I'm investing in other priorities first.

You can pack your long sockets with cotton it may help next time
Hoping to get some of those sweet jwspeaker lights trail 6 I think they were.
Awesome review Ben! I have been re-watching this video to compare the amber vs. the white in the LP6 Pros driving combo. I may go with white and then add the Baja Designs 10" S8 light bar in amber above the winch on the winch guard bar.
You cant go wrong either way! They are both great choices, and like you said, mixing the LP6 white and adding an amber s8 would be a killer combo.
JK Gear and Gadgets if you had to choose between amber or white on the LP6 Pro in driving combo which way would you go?
MACjeeps I think I talked about that in the video lol. If I could only choose one, it would be amber.
JK Gear and Gadgets my bad, I thought you were comparing the the white spot to to the amber driving combo
Why did you compare LP6 Amber Combo with LP6 White. I’m really considering the BD but would prefer to see Combo against Combo and Spot vs Spot

Hello what turn signals are on the JK looks great
might be a good idea to swap the mounting fasteners over to stainless tamper/theft resented. those expensive lights are too tempting for the mid-night auto parts crowd.
