Post HID Light Build
I didn't feel like messing with ordering ballasts, housings, making them fit, etc. so this is the route I went.

I ordered the following parts:

4" Lights: http://www.trifectaoffroad.com/Lighting/

RAM Mount: http://www.ram-mount.com/CatalogResults ... fault.aspx

Threaded male post base so it could be used with a RIVNUT application:
http://www.ram-mount.com/CatalogResults ... fault.aspx

Note; I did have to remove the male threads from the post and use longer 1/4" male threads.

I used The TM plug and a toggle switch:


RivNut installed on bow:


Base with lights not in use:


Base Totally Removed:


Lights in navigation mode:


Bowfishing mode possibly???


And 100x Brighter than the old Go-Light!!!

Quick question about your lights. I went on the site you poster and wanted to check with you. The price listed is per each light, or for a pair? I'm hoping its for a pair, but thinking its for one light. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the price is for each, not the pair.

Lights came in a couple days ago and had a few minutes to put together a quick bracket and get them mounted. Not finished yet, still need to wire them together with a plug and a switch but they look good......Hopefully they'll also work good :D
