Not driving on public roads with them on in the US, right? As headlights or Off-Road lights? The high ones will get you berries and cherries.

Height of headlamps must be at least 24” but no higher than 54”.

You need the turn signals up front, and you need the running lights up front. Up top, you need the clearance markers. The other stuff is optional, but not if it's blinding. You see big rig trucks that have all those extra cool lights.

Check out these lights- few different color LEDs in same package

Raney's

If you get hassled, flip the switch and legal. I just finished(almost) painting and am deep into LED marker research myself...
