LED HeadLights
 
If you are lookin to get some of the new LED headlights from truck-lite you better win the lottery HAHAHA. I just called the them an they are Is everyone sitting down because once u read the price you will need to sit down they are $400.00 EACH. Thats right 400 bucks each i about fell out of my chair when the guy told me that. Looks like im stayin with the silverstars from silvania found at KRAGEN Oreilly's In walnut CA at nogales an amar just ask for me John AKA BIG JOHN.

If you compare that price to true HID's that's not crazy expensive.

The rear question is how well do they work? If they create a pure light that close to HID's then it's not too bad.

I'll stick with my factory T-3's :lol:

For that kind of money, they better do a lot more than just light the road in front of me.

I would not buy led head lights. i have a led flashlight which is 128 lumens which is pretty damn bright. you cant look at the light at all. the only problem is the beam on them sucks. a regular incandesent flash light has a way better beam. so if they compare to the performance of my flashlight its not worth it

Pass, until they come down to $19.95 each.

What would be the purpose of going with LED headlights? Does it allow you to cut back to a much smaller alternator or something? For $800 bucks I could come up with a lot more things for my truck to make it look pretty. I could buy a nice box of microfibre towels to clean the inside of my windshield so I could see better at night for one. LOL. Hell, I could almost pay for Laser surgery on both eyes so I could see better during the day too....
