View Full Version : Light upgrades

So I've got my xrox bar on and bought two pairs of driving lights to see which looked best in the wing part. Fitted the winch. Then realised I could use the left over pair next to the winch solenoid box.

As now I have 2 pairs of Narva driving lights with relatively white halogens in them.

So now the main lights look a bit orange so visited putting the Narva +120 halogens in which I think will be similar colour to the driving lights and obviously brighter than the stock bulbs.

Was looking at upgrading the H1 inner high beam and the low/high H4 bulbs.

But after seeing each pair of globes around 60 bucks I noticed that a hid conversion for the high beam only is 80 bucks...

So so I upgrade the low/high beam to the halogen +120 (legal) and upgrade the high beam to hid as they won't be blinding people if the reflectors aren't perfect.

Anyone had any experience or suggestions between the two? I don't really want the low beam HID for a few reasons so it's only the inner high beams.

Hi Peter,

There is a recent, pretty chunky, thread on this subject here

Thanks Steve.

I'll be sure to swing over to that thread and bury this one.

I am going through a similar dilemma... My spotties are HID and I have a LED light bar which is also very white.

I want to stay legal ish I was looking at an all HID conversion but only 4300K

Will be interested to see what you end up with.
