The Ultimate Guide to Off-Road Lighting

Whether you’re crawling up a pile of rocks, or cruising down a mountain trail, having the ability to clearly see ahead of your truck, or UTV is paramount, especially after the sun goes down. No matter where you live, the best off-roading is far from the glow of city lights. Original vehicle headlights and fog lights typically have a tough time providing adequate light for an off-road adventure that continues after sunset. Depending on the moon and stars to light your off-road path is not exactly a prudent decision. Cloud cover, tall trees, and mountains can block natural light from the sky, making driving in the dark extremely risky. 

Adding aftermarket lighting to your off-road vehicle is a must. You never know when a day-trip will carry you into the night. 

Benefits of Off-Road Lighting

High intensity, glare-free LED lights are essential for 4x4 vehicles that hit the gravel at night. It’s vital to have clear visibility of rocks, dips, wildlife and other hazards when driving in pitch-black darkness. Off-road LED lights come in different shapes and sizes and can project up to three different beam patterns: spotlight, floodlight, or a blend with a spot & flood light combo. 

Not only do off-road lights provide the functional benefits of improving driving visibility, but they also provide aesthetic benefits for your 4x4 by giving it style and personality. Additionally, off-road lighting can be installed from the comfort of your home garage or driveway.
