Robbob72cb Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I’d really like to up the output of my headlights, taillights and fog lights! I don’t know much abt LEDs. I understand they’re stronger/brighter and last much longer? Can anyone recommend some solid LED bulbs that they have and love?

Zee199969 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 LEDs are brighter up close, but do not throw light as far as a solid HID setup. I've had my morimoto HID set for over 4yrs with no issues My "Build" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zee199969 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 from theretrofitsource.com, bulbs, ballast, and relay will run you about $165. My "Build" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want something that will shine through my blackouts during the day!! I’m worried abt getting pulled over! I’d like to get LED rear lights...the brighter the better! Anyone have any easy swaps?

Perscitus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Pick up four of these and perform the quad brake light mod (so that your trunk 7440s become 7443s and function both as position and stop/brake lights) http://www.vleds.com/shop-bulb-numbers/7443/7443-6-r.html I'd still ditch the blackouts and consider either a. no tint b. light (50+) film or spray on tint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe after my first “fix it” ticket. Which lights am I replacing? Brake lights and..? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perscitus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Brake lights (2x7443) and position/trunk lid lights (2x 7740 will become 7443s). Search for the quad stop/brake light mod instruction on here from years ago. You can do the turn signals (all around) next, but you might need a flasher unit (Tapturn, etc) to prevent hyper-blink.

fedaykin Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Why would you put tints on your headlights? Intentionally handicapping a safety device (dimming the output considerably). Do you have bald tyres as well? Or worn brakes? If you want the blacked out look, split the housing and paint the non reflective surfaces black. Retrofit while you're at it.
