HID spotties have the advantage of using less power to produce more light, so they'd be a good choice.
I'm not sure how Narva lights stand up to being submerged. The IPFs (and one other brand I can't remember) don't mind, as they seal up nicely, but I've heard that Hella, Lightforce and others don't perform so well - after a dunking, they sometimes have water inside the housing. Anything with a plastic casing at the rear might be worth leaving on the shelf - plastic has a tendency to change over time.

Check out the led spots from rigid... Lower power draw and better light. Plus the globes are pretty much shock proof.

I would change that to lower power and "different light" not necessarily better light because for all purposes they aren't better, they are also quite expensive compared to others.
I did a fair bit of research before I purchased mine and settled on Lightforce Gensis (ebay) and then I put 70w HIDs (5000k) in them (internally balasted) courtesy of Thumpa lighting (can be found on the patrol forums). The amount of light they put out is unbelivable if i had to do it again i wouldn't change a thing.
Ive got a set of IPF 900XS spotties, one spot and one spread, great lights i only got them about a couple months ago but i decided i didnt like the look of the nudge bar so i pulled that off and ig ot nowhere else to mount the lights now, so if u decide on the IPFs ive got a set that are like brand new. They cost me $550 fitted with the clear covers. Chasing $330 for them. See how ya go
