7" round l.e.d. Headlights now availible
While doing a search for L.E.D.'s, I stumbled upon this new item from TRUCK-LITE....
7"round l.e.d. headlights Just wonder how much longer until they release them for the large rectangular & small round/rectangular. I'd like to get the large rectangular ones myself. IF THEY'RE AFFORDABLE THAT IS....

Re: 7" round l.e.d. Headlights now availible
After installing about 60 LED lights on trucks at work, I found out the white LEDS are wayy more expensive than the red & amber. The higher end Trucklite or Grote 4" backup lamps are around $100ea
I couldn't inagine what these headlamps would run However, remember this... I bet just about all the lights on cars will be LED in 10 years or now. Sorry, I guess my mind wandered a little bit....

No price listed, so I guess the old saying applies, "If you have to ask........"

Re: 7" round l.e.d. Headlights now availible
I will stick with my German OSRAM Silverstar elements in the Hella DOT housings.
Amazon.com: Hella 002395991 7" H4 Type... Amazon.com: OSRAM Silverstar H4: Automotive You can fly to Germany and get your own european spec OSRAM Silverstar bulbs for the difference in cost.

Re: 7" round l.e.d. Headlights now availible
Yeah those are not even the least bit good looking for a truck or anyhting with fenders, the painted versions they had on the site may look good on a fenderless streetrod. Just my $.02.

Re: 7" round l.e.d. Headlights now availible
I just...cannot conceive of...spending $1000 or more on any headlights...especially for the ones that look like THAT.
