LED/HID headlight upgrade

[sykanr0ng]

If all you drive are smooth roads and streets then HID will be fine.

What those selling them don't mention is that they are very sensitive to vibration and impact.

The roads and streets where I live are harsh, making LED the much better choice.

Trucklite has a newer headlight with a heated lens to help with snow and ice, expensive but........

With the lifespan of LED's I might need to replace them once in my lifetime.

I wonder if any are legal in CA...or on road use.

What do you guys know about the cibie h4 housings? Does anyone make an H4 type housing that has a cutoff?

I ran a set of these for awhile and liked them never did run a relay harness which might have made them a little brighter but definitely worth the money if your going h4 conversion instead of the cheap eBay ones. I even put in a set of hid bulbs to see how they would turn out and the cutoff was not bad not great but but way better than having the cheap lenses that just scatter the light everywhere. Here's a link to the cibie ones I bought but in the end I went with a set of true hid projectors from heus33 and someday might still change them out to LEDs if I can get back into selling all the various LEDs lights I was offering on here because I can now get a version of the trucklite ones real cheap and it would be nice to have LEDs all around the rig instead of a mismatch of bulbs and auxiliary lights.

Here's a couple of pics of the cibie lights the first one is with the bulbs that come with the lights I posted in the link the second is a comparison between a eBay lense and a cibie with hid bulbs the passenger side is the cheap eBay one.
