I recall reading posts about halogens and "blue lights" but couldn't find them in the search function. So I need to ask...
Anyone switch to halogens?? Anyone using the new blue lights?? Part numbers anyone?

There are several posts about "Halogen" there. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 531 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 531 | You're right cletis... when I did my original search I only put in "headlights" and got zero...

They are readily available at any parts store for a very reasonable price. You really should use relays with them. They draw more curent than the old style & the original wires are marginal in size. LMC is pushing some clear & blue lights. The last time I was there the guy said they were selling so fast they could barely keap them in stock.
They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

I'm definately going to go with halogens... maybe even the Sylvania Silverstar... I'm pretty confident that my wiring is set as it was totally redone but we'll check.
Thanks... what a great site with a great bunch of folks! | | |
