Good lights to buy

is this the light bar you have?

 

What kind of bulb should I get? I know 55w but idk what type of bulb

 

Mine is a "3 light" bar, but ya...pretty much same thing. Mine just has three mounts instead of four.

 

Oh gotcha you don't think when it says "no drill tow hook" mounts it means like from the bottom tow hooks right or is it kind of the same place yours is mounted??

 

says in that write up i posted. Think its an H4

 

for the 500's or the light forces?

Not sure about the 500's but the lightforces use an H3 bulb.

 

The 700s are larger than the 500s. I got the brush guard through the dealership. Its made by big country.

 

Yeah I found it after I asked you whoops but I think I'm gonna buy 2 hella 500 fogs and 2 500 driving and hid them

 

So you just called toyota and asked if they had one for your truck?

 

Nordic N44


or Cero XD-16

 

+1 on up converted hella hid's. I have hella 700's up converted to 55w hid's and they are incredible. And the pair cost what a single hid off road light would cost.

 

Yeah. I asked if they could get one and they ordered it from Big Country for me. I believe it was around $300 and no shipping. It ended up being cheaper going through the dealership because they order steps, brush guards, and those kinds of things from them frequently.

 

Oh hell yeah so doing that! Thanks!

 

Where did you get the HID conversion items,

I have a new set of 500FF coming in and i want to convert to HID before I install them,

I have installed HID kits in other cars before but I want to keep my standard headlights I have as i have a set of very nice Narva Range Power bulbs, absolutely love em,

I plan on mounting these on hood mounts from Relentless I hope, unless I need to find a way to put them on a small light bar in the front,

I had a kit years back from Xenon Depot, and they basically got absorbed I think by another company,

I know I can find a cheap set on eBay for 40 or less but don't mind spending a little more and knowing I am getting something of better quality.

 

I got my HID set from DDM tuning. Very easy to do the conversion.

Converted hella 700ff's to 55w 6k:




Ended up being bluer than I wanted (probably will do my headlights in 55w 5k when I retrofit) but they still are bright as fuck.

 

i also used DDM tuning kits. I think i have some of the last Raptor style ballasts though. Not any different really just metal cased and way bigger. Wish i had as it would have made wiring a bit easier for my roof rack. but oh well.

 

Do you guys know if any one ever uses hella 500's hid/non hid for yellow fog/snow lights. It seems like im seeing a lot about the Piaa 510 and 520s with yellow lamps along with the Piaa Ion crystal lamps and nokya lamps to replace factory fog lamps, but not to much about the Hellas. Im thinking about getting an Avid light bar and mounting some low fog lights with yellow lamps for bad weather and some driving lights on top of the avid bar to be able to use on the highways here in CT.
