Driving Lights

About this range

Driving lights turn high beam from adequate into genuinely useful, whether you are dodging roos on a country highway or picking a line on a track at night. We stock LED driving lights from Narva, HardKorr and Low Voltage in sizes from 4 inch up to 9 inch, plus Fyrlyt halogen lights for drivers who prefer their colour rendering in dust and rain. Buy online with Australia-wide shipping, or have them supplied, wired and fitted at our Burwood workshop in Melbourne.

How to choose driving lights and light bars

Extra driving lights are legal in Victoria, within limits on how many you fit, where they go and how they're switched. Here's how to choose a set that's bright where you need it and road legal.

  1. Four extra, at most

    You can fit up to four additional driving lights, and an LED light bar counts as one of them (VSI 8). Pairs must be at the same height and face forward.

  2. Wired to high beam

    Driving lights must only come on with your high beam and go off with it. Dip within 200 m of oncoming traffic or a vehicle you're following.

  3. Where they go

    A single light bar must sit on the centreline. Lights can go above the roof line if they're in the front half of the vehicle, and on a bull bar they must sit behind its front face.

  4. Spot, flood or combo

    A spot beam reaches far down the road, a flood lights a wide area close in, and a combo does some of both. Lux at a distance tells you more about reach than total lumens (Narva).

Choosing the right driving lights

Start with how far you actually need to see. Bigger housings generally throw light further, so a pair of 9 inch lights like the Narva EX2 or HardKorr BZR suits open highway touring, while 4 to 7 inch lights are a better fit for utes and wagons that spend more time on tighter tracks or have limited space behind the bull bar. Most quality lights run on 12 and 24 volts, so check your vehicle's system if you drive a truck or older 4x4.

LED versus halogen is the other big decision. LEDs draw less power, last longer and put out a bright white light. Fyrlyt halogens take a different approach, using a warmer beam that many drivers find cuts through dust, fog and rain with less glare bouncing back at you. Neither is wrong, it comes down to the conditions you drive in most.

Finally, plan the install. Driving lights must be wired so they only operate with high beam to stay road legal, mounts need to be solid enough to stop vibration blurring the beam, and lights sitting in front of a radar cruise sensor or parking sensor can cause problems. We sort all of that at the workshop.

Common questions

Are light bars legal in Victoria?

Yes. A light bar counts as one of up to four additional driving lights. It must be white, face forward, sit on the vehicle's centreline if it's a single bar, and only work with high beam (VSI 8; Road Safety (Vehicles) Regulations 2021).

How many driving lights can I fit?

Up to four additional lights, light bars included (VSI 8).

Do they have to be wired to high beam?

Yes. In Victoria, driving lights may only switch on when your high beam is on and must turn off with it (VSI 8).

Are amber or coloured covers legal?

Not on the road. Lamp covers must be clear, untinted, uncoloured and clean (VSI 8).

Do I have to cover my lights when I'm not using them?

There's no Victorian rule that says you must cover them. What matters is that they only work with high beam and that you dip them for other road users.

Lux or lumens: which matters?

Lumens measure the total light a lamp puts out. Lux measures how much light lands on the road at a distance, so the distance at which a beam still gives 1 lux tells you more about how far it reaches (Narva).
