I've looked at those, but the price was outrageous. What did he quote them to you at?

well the way I weighed it out is everyone wants $100 to$200 bucks for sets of lights. I peace of metal with 2 holes, two light bulbs and a couple of wires. and you still can't see 20 feet. so what he heck.

I use 35 watt Grote lights...... I can see just fine.
Nightlight.jpg Oh sure, I'd prefer the LED for the amp load..... but for that kind of money I can put a 90 amp alternator on it!! |

I thought I ran across some LED replacement lights that would replace the sealed beams. I've got a couple tractors and a combine that could stand an upgrade. I guess I'm becoming accustomed to modern vehicles with good lighting and am wanting the same quality lights on everything I have.

I've been looking at these (the surface mount lights) for a LONG time, but the price has always stopped me. I'm curious how they look on the tractor and the field of light you end up with after they're installed.
For a tractor that needs everything for lighting; wiring, mounts, switches, etc., this might not be a bad option money wise. Such as an NF with just a filler panel to start (like my 100).

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
