Windshield Mounted Lights----What's the best set-up? (post ur pics!)

I am looking to mount 2 130 watt KC slimlites on windshield brackets. I want to use these lights b/c 1) I already have them (they have just been sitting around broken but they can be fixed) and 2) they are pretty decent lights, but I'm not sure if they are the best to use.

For everyone with lights on your windshield, what set-up are you running (brand, size, power, etc.)???

thanks for the pics. Does it make any kind of difference whatsoever to use a KC slimlite vs. a daylighter????

Hella 500 driving lights with 55w H3 bulbs and KC brackets. I've been happy with the lights and the price pretty good.

I'm running 100w KC Daylights, with KC brackets as well. These pics dont show it but I used that black felt mesh tape to cover the wires on the exterior.

KC Slimlites long range. The first photo is with the cables outside at the edges of window wipers arms cover. After that i opened that (very easy 4-5 screws only) and i passed them under this cover.
