I have the tall ROPS and the light shoots right over my head. I was worried about that as well {turning my head and getting blinded} but I angled them so the beam hits 10 feet or so in front of tractor. If I had the short ROPS, would probably need blinders on.
I was having a real problem seeing with the FEL and OEM lights. If the bucket was out of the way of the lights, then it was in the way so I couldn't see. If it was out of the way so I could see it was in the way of the lights. Grrrrrrr.
It was a pretty simple set-up, the lights are Wagner H4703 low beam headlights. 55watts, 12.8 volts. So are pretty bright but it doesn't look like a jet coming in for a landing.
The cases are all rubber and have a lip on the lower side in front of the lamp that protrudes an inch or so. Maybe that is why I am not getting blinded?!?
The angle iron is a left-over piece from the Garage door brackets. Tons of holes just have to pick one. Wires run through the ROPS so no need to have wire ties, tape, etc. Feed it through existing holes in back of ROPS and secured with rubber insert to avoid chaffing. {sp}
This is probably the part which will irk some people. Drilled and tapped two 3/8 in holes in the bottom of the ROPS to hold the bracket.
