Offroad or Marker Lights?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Should I get the OEM Offroad lights or the marker lights (you know the OEM "bar" that goes just above the windshield). I'm still a little sketched about drilling holes in my roof. I wonder if I get offroad lights and I end up not liking them, if the holes for the marker lights would match up? I'll go with which ever gets the most votes. :grouphug:

What do you think?

Marker lights, just be prepared for a little more wind noise ..... so you might as well get a roof rack while you're at it!

Marker lights, i know some people will tell you more wind noise, but there isnt, i didnt notice any difference so far i had mine 3 months no marker lights then i got em installed and ive had it three months since then and didnt notice any difference. Another reason id get the marker lights is cause look at the H1 and the H2 they both have it, they belong on it, it completes the "Hummer" look. I would do that and then get the PIAA lights on the grill!

Be different and get the off road lights. Everyone has the marker lights and I really like the off road lights. Especially the oem twin rectangular lights.

The Off Road lights are cool... But the Amber Marker lights look cooler to me. Plus, there on at night and it makes the 3 more noticable.It breaks up the roof line nicely.

There is no wind noise with the new factory fix. I had mine installed at the dealer and he used the new sealing kit which runs about $15.00. No Noise...and I've had my 3 up to 80 MPH.

Also the amber lens color contrast's the body color nicely especially your color ..

Marker (I have them) then put off road ones on your rack or brush guard

Go with the marker lights. Mine make zero noise and look awesome! It really completes the H3, if you already have the brush guard...

The answer is what you want. Markers are for to be seen by others. Offroads are to see. On my rig they see me with factory lights. I put lower twin mini's on the bottom with a extra set of big beams on my aux bumper rach. I have a set of twin 55 watt mini on the roof with sep switch 3 sets of switches total for looking out...:beerchug: So look out in the woods here we come!!!

Hi Bonzaii!

How's your offroad / marker lights combo coming along? Did you manage to figure out the electrical tap off from the front yet? :excited:

Looks like a bunch of votes for the markers, and a couple for the offroad lights. I put the GM grill offroad lights in tonight, will finish the wiring tomorrow after work. I am also putting the JKS disconnects in and swaping out my front fox shocks for the congitos this weekend. I am leaning towards the markers and going with the gobi lowpro. Then I can mount some offroad lights, high lift, and what-not on the gobi. I thought I would decide by the time I get back from wheeling on Sunday. Lot's of good thoughts here though. Has really go me thinking.

I asked my girlfriend and she said I am crazy to drill holes in my roof, she says "why don't you have Bam and Billy Idol just cut the damn roof off." So, I grabbed a beer and headed back out to the garage. :OWNED:

gotta say marker lights and I like the idea of getting a rack and putting off-road lights there.
BTW your ride looks real clean with the painted grill and mud-terrains, should make for a real nice rig once all is said and done
