Check out these two links for info on auxiliary
lighting: <http://www.puma-access.com/lighting.html>

I have a set of Hella XL's mounted above the front
bumper and am very happy with their performance. I got
mine off ebaY, but some vendors still have them in
stock. My VWFLAPS had a set on the wall last time I
was in there. This internet vendor still advertises
them. <http://www.rapidparts.com/Pages/vwc030p.html>

Good luck,

TJ
