LED cube lights

I picked up a set of LED cube lights, in a spot beam, a few weeks ago. Just got around to installing them today. They are from LEDwarehouse.com, and were $130 shipped. 1356 lumens each, and only draw 1.3 amps ea. Very nice little lights, they feel extremely solid and so far in the day light are pretty bright for what they are. LEDwarehouse also has a great warranty and helpful customer service.

I still need to adjust them slightly to look equal


Just the LEDs


LEDs and the factory fogs (that have 9008 bulbs in them)


I will post some night time pics and further review once i take a drive with them tonight. Also stay tuned because i will update this thread in the next few weeks once i purchase a small light bar from them

Glad you're liking them. My 50" has been great too. What size are you going with?

Not to sure on what size bar i will do, once i do my 05 front end conversion i am going to be changing things around. Just wanted to get these out of my room for now.

Pics dont really help here, but these little cubes are pretty bright for what they are. I could easily drive off just these alone, although i probably wont unless i need to... On backroads they throw quite a bit more light out into the trees and all around, Ill have to wait until i drive on a highway to see how they do out in the open. I think i need to point these up a little more though. I also angled them out slightly as when they were both pointed forward it just made 1 large beam of light that was not so great. I might move these to some reverse spotlights someday, and throw a 20" or so bar into the whole opening down there...we will see. Happy with them now though

Just the cubes


Headlights+OEM fogs

looking good! once you get a light bar, these will work great angled out to help fill in voids the headlights miss. I have a buddy running a dual row 42" bar spot/distance, and two 12" double row bars for floods/ angled lighting. The nice thing about LED bars is the constant light pattern, no dark gaps in between like a row of round lights would make. * love this truck BTW, how are the Toyo's treating you?

Thanks! Yeah i love the LED bars, especially just the looks alone. Have never been a fan of having a bunch of round lights on my truck

The toyos are great, unfortunately i lost all my data so im not sure how many miles i have on them, around 6k id say though. look good!

I have noticed that it seems like every led cube/bar out there looks identical, the rigid housing just looks different with their name engraved in the front. And superbrightleds.com sells some that are identical for $50...im sure they all come from the same factory in china

A lot of the components do, like the housings. But different brands assemble different internals based on where they want to price their lights.
For example, you can buy a light bar identical to mine, but with different LEDs and LED Controllers.

Looks great man! I have been debating what config to get, I was thinking about getting a 20" bar myself and using some cubes as reverse lights if they aren't needed up front. If yours comes out good then that gives me a good reason to put my HID lights on my 95 lol.

My reverse lights just showed up today. I bought a 4 pack of Tuff LED 4" squares from amazon. Only $104 and they have great reviews. Figured why not. Going to mount 2 up under the bumper somewhere and then 2 hanging down from the frame rail in front of the rear tires,aiming back. Should have plenty of light lol

Looking good Miles! I'd like to mount some lights on the back of my truck too and run them to a switch so I turn them on and off whenever I want. Sure would be nice to actually see back there when hooking up a trailer in the dark.

My trailer came with a light wired up on the front of the trailer that you can turn on to see the hitch. Its got a battery on the trailer, but you could easily get one of those stick on LED lights you push to turn on.

Or... Get some LED lights like Miles has
