Hella 700ff HID conversion.

can i see a picture of the hella's with HID's? i just got my light bar and am now looking for my 2 sets of 700ff's which i will convert to HID's asap,

 

I like Your light bar.......

 

How's the beam with the HID's, any hot spots or weird patterns like with putting them in the factory housings?

 

I just did the conversion with Timicha on his Hella 500FF lights last night and after going for a test drive, there did seem to be some hot spots but it wasnt bad IMO. For the price, this mod is excellent!

 

Anyone have a reputable dealer that sells the conversion? I saw one last night and didn't bookmark it. The link on the front page didn't work (for me).

Thanks!

 

You can do the same thing with the KC Highlites only a little easier. Not as much drilling on the lite housing. Nice job and good write up.

 

can you tell me how you wired your ballast to the relay for your setup, did you use a y connect to connect the ballast together?

 

Can we see some pictures from the drivers seat at night thanks in advance. Nice conversion btw.

 

Yea, took the positive wire from each ballast and connected them to one wire by a y connector.

Yea no problem im in class right now, so when i get out tonight ill take a picture and post it.

 

perfect, i am just waiting for my hid's to show up, then this mod will be started

this is a good find

I bought my HIDs in a group buy a long time ago for ALOT more than this, and the were Apexcone.

Thats an unreal price

yeah bud, i know what group buy you are talking about the wife paid 250 for heads and fogs, i found this site and it would have cost her less than half. she wasn't too happy about that, lol. and it was for the exact same ones.

 

nice mod! Great build!

 

the lights are sick , where did you get that light bar

 

Still waiting on those pic's and waiting and waiting

 

Haha sorry just check this thread.

Here is a pic nothing great. Ill try to update with new pics soon.

 

Damn this thread.

I just bought a pair of the 700ff lights. Getting ready to do the conversion.

Which bulb kit did you order from the link? The Apexcone, DDM, or Porsche one?

 

Have you guys had any problems with heat in the 700 housing? The website selling the bulbs mentions that the 55w bulbs get pretty hot and are meant for larger housings.

Just wanted to ask before I bought. Thanks!

 

I bought the Apexcone.

Well i have the 35w and they don't even get warm. Honestly i doubt you will have any problems with the heat of the 55w since the lens is glass and the housing id steel. The only plastic is on the outer cover and if you melt that im sure the HID wiring will be toast before that happens.

 

Dellosa, thanks for the quick answer!!! 55w bulbs ordered!
