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. http://s161.photobucket.com/user/coggonobrien/media/Gleaner%20R50/20160815_190128_zpslw6v5dbv.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  http://s161.photobucket.com/user/coggonobrien/media/Gleaner%20R50/20160816_214106_zpsoxukgaiw.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  |

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, 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. |
