Gilbert and Roche at Eastern Creek on the highway. Best price I found locally, walk in and walk out great service.

Unless you put HID bulbs in them and then I'm convinced it's personal choice as to the colour of the light.Quote:

Others have posted "Oh I do this many KM of night driving" as have I. Some say HID causes more eye strain, I and my brother who drives interstate trucks say the opposite.
It's personal choice.
I think we've been down this track before.

Your call on that!
An observation on Fyrlyt output colour rendering.
I have found wiring makes an enormous difference to this.
People running inadequate wire have a far more yellow light than those running decent wiring.
This is nothing new, as those who upgrade their factory lights using as an example a Traxide kit also find similar gains in standard headlight output.
Just something for those wiring up lights (or paying someone to do it) - make sure you overkill the feed and earth cabling to the lights. Individual relays per light are also a benefit.
A hella 500 kit is about my budget (good price - pity they're in the US). Lucky I avoid night driving.
Have a look at the rallye 4000 prices on that website, and keep in mind that freight is US$85 for 2. That is what I call value.Quote:

Just remember, the quality is remembered long after the price has been forgotten. You only get what you pay for.Quote:

Hella is a well established company, the Rallye 4000 line has a good reputation.Quote:
