We usually use fog/driving light kits. You can mount a single light centrally on the front of the grill or on top of the hood, which allows you to keep a spare light for when it gets crushed. They light up pretty good using the headlight circuit off of the engine, so you don't waste battery.

Not the prettiest solution, but it works pretty well.

LED's are only for there low current draw. I don't really like LED's...though saying that, I replaced the tungsten lamps on my tractor with LED's. They'll get replaced again with 1 watt LED's at some point. Ill mount them in the stock headlight holder thingies.
