Best Lights for Behind Grille

Hello everyone. A new Tacoma owner with a question. I just bought a Grillcraft black mesh grille & after seeing some setups with lights behind this grille I gotta do it. Whats the best lights for this?

i am doing the 170 HID's

 

i actually just took a pair of HID converted hella 500's off my truck. If you are interested, pm me.

 

Idk if 170s would fit...i know Hella 500s and 700s do. I have 4 with HIDs in em and DAMN they are bright.

 

I've read somewhere that 170s didn't fit. Have you tried it yet. Those are out of my price range but I'm interested cause it'd give me a size reference.

Sending you a PM AsianAnts.

 

There's a guy on here thats selling his 170 cause they wouldn't fit behind the grille on a 2nd gen. There's got to be more room on a gen 2 then on a gen 1.

 

Don't know about the 1st gen, but they will with a 2nd gen, check out ELUSIVE ELEMENTS Light bar behind grill GROUP BUY.

 

Hella Black Magic 500s

 

hella 500ff's converted to hid. check my buildd

 

For the price i got the 7" ones from automatcentral.com on his groupbuy on here and fitted HID's in them and they are twice as bright as my Hella black magics i had before but i liked the Hellas as well, just couldnt pass up the deal on these

Do you guys drive on the road (at night obviously) with the extra lights on?

Or are they strictly for off road?

 

without the hids in the hellas, if you had them aimed way down you might get away with it but after i converted them they are way to bright with people around. i switch them on when no ones around though or if someone is a dick and cuts me off, lol

 

YEa usually just at night on roads that are less traveled and when offroad obviously too but ive actually accidently left all 4 of mine on one time and didnt get flashed by anyone so i think id be ok to leave them on but i dont just so there is no worry unless someone cuts me off or doesnt cut their Hi's off

 

i left them on one time with oncoming traffic to see what would happen. there was a guy about a half mile up in a little riced out civic and i could see his face like "is this heaven" lol

 

Yea ive noticed the same thing sitting at stop signs with cars passing by the whole insideof their car lights up lol...I fell bad for the old people but ive come to notice in a way HID's are kind of like bug lights and your drawn in to look at them and as long as you dont pay them any attention they dont blind you but we all know no one is going to do that

 

^That.

 

170's will fit but they aren't cheap but they are worth it. 700m of light is awesome.
