I couldn't tell you about on coming traffic, but I haven't been flashed or anything. There is guys running around with 20" bars on LOL

There is no way. The 20" bar is way too bright for driving in traffic.

Yea I was afraid of that so I went this route and the cost of a 20" bar was a little out of reach

What light beam did you get, driving or flood?

I have the flood D2's, wish I had gotten the Driving beam for the added distance of the light, but the floods are still extremely useful.

Not a damn chance I would drive with these in traffic at night. I use them in the day when I'm in town so people don't cut me off as much (need 40 of these on my motorcycle), but at night, no way. I use them in addition to my brights on the highway, but for reference:

The have to dim the D2's at night on the road, when the oncoming cars are twice as far as I do with my bright beams in my headlights. On my trip through Northern Alberta before X-mas driving through snow, rain, wind and smoke I had 3 truck drivers on the CB let me know they were going to stick behind me because my lights were better than theirs.

Can't count the number of deer, antelope and moose these things have picked out of the ditch. Well worth it, but I would love a couple of their bars for my truck, tractors or the semi!

These are the driving pattern, I still use them around town driving to work but there is not many cars on the road at that time

Question for someone I have flood duallys in my front bumper but I'm thinking about upgrading to the D2s because I want something brighter. Do the d2s use the same plug as the duallys where I could just unplug the duallys and not have to re run the wires. I might put the duallys on the back of my truck.

09stroker · Aug 5, 2012

Yes, they do. Unless they recently changed thier wiring.

6.0L Stroker · Aug 5, 2012

Alright cool. The d2s are quit a bit brighter than the duallys right?

09stroker · Aug 5, 2012

Yeah, twice as bright.

Thanks man.

Call a couple shops, I got mine from a local diesel shop my buddy works at and sold me a set at cost . . . about $300 Canadian for a set of D2's was pretty sweet, lol.

One of the vendors on here sells them:

Has anyone used a set of Dually's regular, D2 or Diffused as reverse lights? Wanting to use them as reverse work lights. Planning on just running them on my headache rack with the flasher kit also through the upfitters.

I haven't but that is my plan here shortly to use my duallys as back up lights and put d2s where the duallys are in my front bumper.
