6 total:
2 IPF J01's(55watt) on top of ARB
2 PIAA 1400's(55watt) in ARB
2 Wallymart special reverse lights(55watt), cause Xterra reverse lights suck at night! Used the Coolerman relay Kit which helped alot! laugh
Plus the stock 35watt fogs relocated to the ARB

How are those lights attached to your front grill? I don't see a Safari bar or anything, are they attached directly to grill?

Chato,

Yep, I went right into the bumper. The plastic on the bumper ('02 X) sits slightly higher than the underlaying metal so I used brass sleeves as spacers that sit flush with the top of the plastic. This prevented the plastic from distorting when the bolts were cinched down. Here is a closer pic:

The lights are low-profile 55w Pro Comp Fogs. Hope this helps and good luck!!

Man, good idea. I've ben wandering lately if that would work. I have a 00, and would like to do something like that to mine. Not sure it would work on my year model though.
Anyway, it looks really good!

2 in back +
4 in the front
but since the fronts are all duals, does that count for 8 or 6 since once set works one setting at a time. confused

You can easily get 20 or 30 more lights on there to completely block the flow of air to the radiator.

I was eagerly awaiting your cynical response Ian.

I am deleting my original reply to this thread simply because my contribution was seen as assinine by the hallowed admin of XOC. I don't want to be offering up stupid and embarassing info.

Plus...I refuse to play into Ian's self-righteous game. [Finger]

Waaaaaaaa !

Seriously. Why do you need 12 lights on your truck ?

Is it really dark down there or something ?

Do you guys have the stock alternator and battery with these set-ups?

Re: How Many Lights On your X?? - 25/06/03 12:00 PM

Just 2 extra lights on mine so far, couple of 55W Bosch halogens:



Not super-bright and I'm sure they're only decent compared to today's offerings, but considering they're 15 years old that's to be expected. Only reason I got 'em is because they're Genuine Nissan Accessory items with nifty Nissan-embossed covers, and I have this "retro" Nissan thing going (my wheels, the grille badge, etc.).

If I ran a couple of those rope lights around the bumpers of my X, could I count each light in them and win a prize?

And a Nissan 4x4 badge from an old pickup.

File that with the Department of Redundancy Department.

Agreed, but it seems to go over pretty well with most that have commented on it elsewhere. Now I wouldn't go so far as to put "4x4" decals on the sides like Nissan slaps on the Frontier, that is just a tad brighter than putting a "Powered by Nissan" decal on the windshield.

i have a '00 and i put two 500's on the front bumper much in this same style, but on the '00 stock bumper, the upper 3rd of it is steel, so i drilled into that and put the bolts onto it. there is great access through the vents in the bumper, makes for a clean, trick install.
laters,
david [Geek]

oh, and i have 4 extra in the front and two in the back. maybe pics someday.

I'm currently running 4 on the roof and soon to be added 2 for the rear to be hooked up to the reverse lights....

Re: How Many Lights On your X?? - 04/07/03 08:03 AM

I'm running 4 IPF 868's on the roof and two RB200's on the ARB. I have to say that the IPF's have been great on a couple of night runs that I have led.

I 4 wheel during the day, and since there's not a lot you need to see in front of you when you are going 4 miles an hour, I have a couple Hella 4000s on the roofrack just for show... They aren't even hooked up right now...

Also useful so no cadavers get accidentally stored up there. I hate it when they mistake it for a gurney.

Re: How Many Lights On your X?? - 07/07/03 04:43 PM

just curious....how do you run the wires from the roof to the power source? Did you drill a hole in the roof or run it inside the door and down the A-pillar?

Basically most of people seems to use passenger side a-pillar and running wires under weather strip. Drilling is not very favorable b/c of potential leaking.
