Welcome.

This is what I did for lights on my B3300SU



Tons of stuff in the Customizing section that would work for you. Doesn't matter the brand of tractor for these mods, any colour will still give you some more ideas

Nice work Farm Boy, the switches look factory. Nice placement.

What all do you plan on doing with the tractor? Mowing, grading, clear brush, this will help us to give you some ideas, some cheap, some not so much.

Welcome to the Forum.

Here are some light brackets I made for the BX out of a piece of angle, flat stock, and carriage bolts.







I added the switches to the light. There is a link in my signature on how to do that. I like the color that LEDs put off.

For your bucket mod's start by adding some weldable grab hooks to it.

I agree that the bucket hooks are the most useful mod. It only took me a dozen years to learn to weld and put them on!

Some opt for a tooth bar @ $300+

I went with bolt on teeth for inder $100

Teeth are nice. Great for digging, and for lifting things, and pushing brush.

I cant help with the lights...

A spill guard is nice for the bucket,allows for a place to add hooks.This is what I did on my previous L3240.

A tooth bar provides a thick edge to strength the bucket, something you don't have with bolt on teeth. Of course, it depends on how you will be using it. I hit a lot of rock with my digging (skid steer) and ended up with a dedicated tooth bucket. Of course, everyone's needs are different.

I thought of mounting my lights low like yours, my concerns

I wear glasses, any glare/reflections with lights at eye level behind your head?

When turning to look rearward don't they shine in your eyes?

I see you have a little bit of shielding ,was that enough?
