Just got some over head lights for free and I’m curious what you guys think I’m kinda mixed I think they’re older KCs (I’m sorry for the wicked glare in the window I didn’t notice it until I decided to upload the picture and again I’m sorry if this is the wrong thread I’m still trying to get a hang of things on here.)
 
all your lights are round so it is all matchy-matchy. To me it has an older design look to it, more classic if you will. 4 KC's should put out good light but LED light bars probably more usable. Free I would run that all day long and enjoy! part of me wonders if there is a LED that would next level the brightness without the electrical load.

There probably is and truthfully I don’t know much about these all I really know is they’re KCs and I’m pretty sure they’re an older model I was jus talking about KCs grandpa says he has a set in the back and gives me this while I don’t know much I do know free is free
 
have you wire them up? if they are KC daylighters then 100w bulbs. want to make sure you run a proper size wire/relay on them. run them in pairs - its over 30 amps if you do all four together..or you could source a 40 amp relay.

I haven’t but thank you for telling me by chance do you know if there’s anyway I could identify these cause just looking at them I don’t see anything that really identified then except a number that seems random

Could you post a pic from the side or back of them? They look just like a set that I used to have.
 
To identify the wattage, I think you'll have to open up the housing and look at the bulb. When I did that on my Eagle Eyes, I found that they were 100 watt.

The sun glare really helps sell the “SOLARyellowshortbuss” theme
