LED Round Headlight or LED Bar for The SUV? Help Me Decide Please

I need some help deciding whether to buy a LED Bar approx 20 inches or 2 x round LED Head lights.
For some reason the headlights are more expensive,I was also told that they are more powerfull.
The LED is more sleek looking and a tad bit cheaper.
The bar would cost approx $120 for a decent unit and the round headlights would cost approx $200.
PS it is for a Ford Territory 2013 and would be mounting it on a bullbar,if i can.
Main function is when i drive through the mist etc.
Thanks

  • they look completely different

    i would go with whatever looks better

    have you included installation costs?

  • installation cost is between $75 and $100.

  • Pretty sure an LED bar is bad for mist/fog as it'll bounce back and blind you. That's why fog lights aim down

    • This. Putting on extra lights just makes the mist more visible, and everything else disappear.

  • Sounds like you mean round LED spot lights, or driving lights. Headlights are standard figment in your car (don't change them from factory fitted items - illegal mods).

    Most LEDs will put out the same light, higher power ones just have more actual LEDs in them. Eg a light bar might have 20 individual LEDs in it, while a light bar twice as long might. Have 40. Typically the LEDs have some reflectors (beam focus things) that spread the light while some form a tighter beam to get more distance.

    If you really want to see a long way down the road LED lights aren't the best either. They will light up in front of the car evenly though. If you really want long distance lighting a traditional halogen quality spot light is a better bet. I'd imagine that with LED lights you won't see any further than the existing high beam, just the light will be more even.
