Yup alam ko isa yan sa regulations when you have those lamps, dapat nakalagay ang cover when in city limits.

Kung kailangan kumuha ng permit, kumuha bago magpakabit. Kung wala namang ganyang batas, walang makakapigil sa isang taong magpakabit nyan.
Sana lang maging responsible sa paggamit ang mga mayroon. Hindi naman porket may nakakabit na led bar a$$hole na agad. E kung sa offroad nya talaga ginagamit, walang issue dun.

*nori, kung magpapakabit ka at alam mo naman ang tamang lugar at panahon ng paggamit, sige lang.

Alam ko hindi parepareho ang mga led lightbars, may mga wide ang beams pero short throw, may mga narrow beam pero malayo ang distance parang hyperspot spot. Research on what you need para sulit din ang pagpapainstall. Get legit lightbars too like Rigid para tama ang beam pattern sa kailangan mo.

LTO regulations limit it to two units mounted at the same level or below the level of the oem headlamps (since this was drafted when euro cars had foglamps built into their headlamp housings).

Again, these regulations were made way before LED tech became commonplace.

I have one on the responder unit (Medical Control 1) but limit its use to roads with no oncoming traffic or if the vehicle in front and traveling in the same direction is 350 or more feet away.

We also use it for scene lighting when we work.

Meron sa blade hella fog lamps that use a led bulb with reflectors. Maliwanag pero hindi sabog yung ilaw kasi naka focus gawa nung reflectors

Alam ko po pwede naman sir pero dapat nadidisconnect ang wires or may covers for urban use. For off highway, off road or private road use, pwede naman po.

Frustration is the only thing you have since nothing you can do about it.

same sentiments here. no match naman yung ganti ko na mag hi beam dahil olats sa LED bars nila. hehe

May fb yung mga sellers nyan. I sent them a message/request for them to remind their customers not to use those in city roads and hiways and to tell their customers that those are offroad lights only. Ang reply? Di daw nila responsibility yun, nagbebenta lang daw sila. Ang galing!

nakita ko rin FB site nung isang seller na based sa manila. siguro kayo yung nagpost about that sa isang item niya. hehe

teka teka teka... di naman LED bar yung kakabit ko ah.

ulitin ko nga, yung iba nabasa lang yung LED at fog galit na galit na agad... yung bullbar may provision for two foglamps, currently may 4" halogen foglamps na nakakabit pero flood ang throw niya hindi spot kaya mahirap gamitin kahit out of town. so ang plan ko palitan siya ng LED foglamps pero sa ilalim ng headlamps ko na ilalagay, to minimize glare if meron man. may seller kasi ng foglamps na focused ang beam niya parang flashlight. di sabog. yun ang target ko. okay?

pero naisip ko lang, if feasible man yung plano ko above eh kakabitan ko na rin ng foglamps or LED bar yung bullbar. pambulag lang sa mga irresponsible LED bar users out there. pwede rin pang flash instead na high beam.

and yes, i know the rule about foglamps above the headlamps as illegal. yung number of foglamps ang di ko alam.

as per the rule, I know may regulation yan, but it is one of those regulations that are lost. Afaik, those foglamps must be covered as well if it you are using the equipped car in City.

can i install the same lamp at the rear? then turn it on whenever someone is flashing you :D
