Got mine from ebay mid last year, an oz seller, single row, 24 10w LEDs (20000+ lumens), very happy with build quality and performance, was under 400 bucks with 2 year warranty I think. Will pm you sellers details when I find them

ebay vs non ebay

I have the great white 12 led bar on my car and it is perfect for half a km I have seen on fb that one guy bought a dual row 52in light bar and he also had the same bar as my one and he recon the great white shat all over his dual row. you pay for what u get.
I sell light bars at my work in Kewdale and IMO Narva light bars are the go slightly cheaper then the great whites and also put out more power (lm) for instance a 20 led which is about 540mm long will put out over 9000 lumen for $538, the 36 led which is 900mm (approx.) puts out 17500 for $969 and I have truck drivers say that they are better then the Baja industries lights. now that has to say something as Baja are in America and Narva is Melbourne based. pm if you would like any further details caughtup.

all in all ebay are cheap n im not going to bag them I have ebay hids but they are still not the best. you go with what you feel most comfortable

hope you get a good one. one thing to remember is not to compare to hid's as led is not built for distance but is a lot more like daylight compared to hid

 Wether you go for cheap eBay

 Wether you go for cheap eBay ones or better quality name brand lights, just make sure you fix them to your car as well as you can and make it as hard to get off as you can. Thieves love stealing light bars!
