Im looking into getting some back-up lights/fog lights. I really dont know what brand to get into or what type to get? I have been searching around and im trying to find something that will be bright and be goood but wont be expensive. And after I get like one set can I just buy single light and then just wire it to the circut of the existing one? Im not an electrical person so I dont really know how its gonna work.

I had plans of putting 2 in the back for back-up lights and then put 2 or 4 up onto the roof rack in the front. Then possibly 2 either on the bumper or put them on the frame thats next to the windshield.

What are the pros and cons between the circle lights and the square lights? like will one give me more light than the other or more wide spread light?

if you search amazon.com for healla 500's, they are usually on sale for about $40 / pair. thats a pretty good price for name brand lights, i have some of the pencil beam black magics, and man do those have some range.

Try a set of these I bought a pair after I saw ga_repoman's set up. I have not hooked them as my reverse lights but they do light up pretty good.

Here is what ga_repoman's set up looks like.
