Starting a thread for the conversion of our R50 to LED's  all lights will be replaced except the 2 cabmounted driving lights (haven't tired real hard to find a replacement for them.)
Lights are Buyers Product 1492113. Rated at 1350lumen, draw 1.5amps and are flood style.  Housing is Aluminum.  http://www.buyersproducts.com/Electrical-Lighting/utility-light/work-utility-lights/oval-clear-led-flood-light-12-24v/5209/
The plan is to replace the 6 forward facing, 2 side facing, and add 1 to each rear corner.
Here's the first 2 pictures, the Led's are not aimed, just threw up there for now.  I replaced the 2 on the right side light bar and intentionally left the other 2 for a comparison.

David, if you would just go to the field when the sun first come up and stay there until the sun goes down you wouldn't need them lights Kenny L.

Steve, yup, she's actually holding our 3rd child.  Kenny, if I had the big bucks and could just stay home I think I would try that.

 Looks good you will like them.
 I replaced the headlights on my CA a few years ago with LEDs and I would never go back. They give more light, use less power and last much longer.
Thanks & God Bless

Thanks, these lights are 1350lumens, unfortunately after we bought them our company began price some through grote that are 1600lumens and cost $18 instead of $30..... guess the tractors will get some brighter lights once that is done.
