Re: Wrangler Lights + Upgraded Bulbs = Brighter?

Look for a standard Bosch 30amp type relay. Or, new ones are about $3-4 each.

Ok, there's probably a dozen or so in the garage already from my dad and his sticky fingers...well technically the guys at the junkyard usually tell him to get the hell out when he asks how much for the handful small parts he usually grabs while getting other larger parts. It's good to make friends with the junkyard owners and employees.

Re: Wrangler Lights + Upgraded Bulbs = Brighter?

Get some true Hella e-CODES and some decent relayed H4's in them. The current Hella DOT 7" conversions are *better* than what was offered here in the states legally from them in years past. But the European versions have a much better pattern, especially on low beams, IMHO. Not as easy to find them however.

As explained earlier in the thread, HIDs are projectors, not reflectors.
