Light choices

My hellas are good i had fun with them in the desert and they sure helped when i needed them now time for hid's

 

x2

 

change the bulbs in the hellas to 100 watt bulbs.......alot brighter than 55watts that are in there now....and its cheaper than buying new lights.

 

True good info will forgot about that

 

and i should also add....the wiring will hold up to that wattage too!

 

Can the lights (housing, wiring, etc...) handle the additional wattage?

 

Ok, you just answered my quesiton...

 

Can I replace the bulbs in my 500FF lamps with "high performance xenon" lights? I don't know the difference between xenon, hid, led, etc... when it comes to lighting.

 

you may be able to.....but the bulb bases may be different. only thing i can say is take one apart and see if they look the same. as far as wires holding the current and all....i think you'd be fine.

 

Maybe i was wrong about you....

or "hey baby wanna stand in my beam" or "Hey wanna stand in front of a truck that don't run?"

 

I prefer the PIAA's! I have the PIAA driving lights & the PIAA bulbs in my tail's

 

had to vote other because i'm torn.
I like Piaa's but I do not that that metal housing and light ring. Had to replace them a number of times (rust). Lights themselves are great.
Hella's are great also, started using them in the early 80's. But I don't like the way the bracket mounts to the light housing.
So for me it is what I can afford at the time.

 

Never thought about rust with the PIAAs...

I think what I'm gonna do is just replace the bulbs with 100w bulbs.

 

I will be doing the same! My buddy has his jeep outside and his piaa'/kc's are doing fine with the mounts wierd they rust.

 

I have KC Hi-Lites..their perfect for what i need em for

 

haha good call

 

Check out my homemade light bar. I had these Warn lights from another truck, so I thought I would try to mount them. I like a simple and clean look, so I made my own out of aluminum rectangular tubing and extrusion that I had laying around. The lights have a fog beam and spot beam, and they really light up the night. I have never had 4 on a truck at once so I am looking forward to trying them out tonight.
