Now you need to go on Ebay and upgrade em to HID, would cost less than 100 bucks to upgrade all 6(head lights and roof lights), then you would be in big trouble, it would be so bright....

Hail RamAirZ, King of Double-Posting...

[ZEUS]

Kewl, luks gud wit da lites! Now clean your steering wheel you disgusting slob!

[RamAirZ]

Ya it would be bright as heck Chris. I may eventually upgrade to HID but the headlights are pretty bright (the last pic doesn't show it well but this one looks alright)




They light up the road really nice at night. It's one of those later mods I'll do, I'm happy with everything for now though, the spot lights really make things bright lol. And how could you do 6 HID's for $100? The kits for our headlights are about $200, some of those super cheap ebay kits are still over $100. Maybe I need to go look again

And VT, yes hail me, if you count the post on the planet for them it would be higher I thought a write-up would be nice for some people, but just for you I'll just start keeping everything in here. I just thought alot of people don't read build threads and search for certain items.


And thanks Zeus, but the steering wheel is worn there, I've tried cleaning it lol.

Alright, here is how it works. H3 or H$ kit on ebay, 35 bucks, thats two lights down, multiply times three...voila. 100ish. If you combine shipping. Get your ebay bucks back, and you are under 100. I did the cheap 40 dollar kit from Hong Kong, that was 20 months ago, no flicker, no pulsing, no strobing, no burnt out bulbs...best deal ever. Had to swap some wires on the factory harness, but nor problemo. They are BRIGHT, you'll see at Hallowharrie on the night run.

[RamAirZ]

gotcha, I had ran one of those kits (it was a LONG time ago) and they were garbage, the ballast took a crap. The newer ones must be better. Since then I hadn't trusted any of the "cheap" HID kits, and your right, swapping some wires is nothing :laughing". I'll have to check them out next month for sure. That would be a nice upgrade. I wonder how hot they would get in the offroad lights, hhmmmmm. Question for ya, do you not have high beams anymore? Those kits are usually single's. Honestly though I never use my high beams anyways as it is.

[vt_maverick]

No worries, just givin' ya grief RamAirZ...

[RamAirZ]

I know

[yellowgizmo99]

you can get them with high and low also and what I have read somewhere the heat from them is lower than regular headlights, the light output is higher but not the heat.

[RamAirZ]

I don't think you can get the high/low one's for $35 though lol. I've got a few other things to buy first but I'll end up trying those out.
