I have no experience with them but I have heard from others that LEDs don't get hot enough to keep the snow melted off while plowing.

While its not exactly what you’re looking for Boss has an LED plow light that supposedly is designed with channels, i think, to heat up the face of the lense so it doesnt ice over

If you go with LEDs you need to get ones that have heating elements in them. I have the Boss LEDs on one of my plows and they're awesome. You can try these https://www.storksplows.com/hamsar-l...-blizzard.html you would just need to splice the wiring to work with your Western. JW Speaker makes the lights for Boss but you can buy directly from them and it has a different mount.

Thanks for the insight. Never thought of the heat to melt ice.
