Yes, and I wouldn't waste my time with them again. They're horrible quality and aren't bright at all. I have also done the headlight wiring mod.

I agree with the cheapies. I bought some of them for my 4x4, but I have a set of Hella's for my c10 that I had in my 67 and they are very nice. If I were buying again I wouldn't get anything but hella's. I was better off with the stockers in the 4x4.

Where to get the HELLA's?

Re: Headlights
 

I had a set of cheapie tri-bar headlights in my truck & they were just fine, not saying that hellas & some others arent better, but for the $$$ mine were fine

I had brighter bulbs in mine & dont have a relay kit on my wiring, so Im sure there was room for improvement

Also, there is a HUGE difference in HID & just a H4 conversion, H4 is just a style of bulb & is a halogen

HID has a ballast & a Xenon bulb... Much brighter

I have the tri-bars with the relay's installed and love them. They light up the road well at night. I would say you can see at least twice as far down the road with these than I could with the stock lights.

My 4x4 is an 85 with the 4 headlights. On bright it is extremely bright and you can see forever, but on just the low beams the performance is poor. I have the relay kit and 80/100 bulbs in that set with 100's in the high beams as well.

In the hellas I used relays as well on the 67 with same 80/100 bulbs and was very impressed.

Re: Headlights
 

mine turned a bit yellow, the bulbs that came with burned out, i had to modify my headlight bucket (that means cut away alot of it) and i can't aim them correctly, but that's because i broke 3 of my adjusters probably and gave up on aiming em.

but look at these i found

I put hid kits on all older model cars using h4 conversions. I have never had any trouble. Brothers trucks has the sealed beam conversion headlamps. its like 50 bucks for the pair and I have never had any trouble with them. the 7'' bulbs are for the single headlamps in all older cars. I have also installed these on 2: 55 bel air's one 72 chevelle a 79 trans am. and all these cars are using 8000k hid kits for about 2 years now without any trouble.
