81+ owners, Truck-Lite releasing a 4"x6" LED

[83GMCK2500]

For the dual lamp (RPO: V22) 81+ owners, that is.

I saw in a recent Peterson's 4WOR that Truck-Lite is releasing another one of their LED headlamps, this time in 4"x6" or 165mm. I looked for it on their site and I do not see it yet, but there are a couple of bulletins about it.

I've only seen them in pictures and I personally don't like their aesthetics. After installing a set of Truck Lite's 5x7 bulbs, I look forward to reviews of these new ones, wouldn't mind a set myself. Now, the real question, to do all 4 or not.

I just hope trucklite puts the heater they have for the round lights in the rest of their line up.

The round TL I wouldn't have. They project a X pattern on the road. If the 4x6 are like the 7" round I wouldn't waste my money. I coughed up the coin and got the round LED with the projectors from another company no light scatter no x pattern and a sharp cutoff. You pay for what you get with this stuff. Now with saying that anything is better than a old halogen light. More and better companies that make the round and the rectangle led lights on the market than TL. JW Speaker if you want DOT approved or Oracle if you don't care about DOT that's just a couple.

LED lights.. snake oil of the industry today.

Want better lights? Swap to H4 and get a heavy duty light harness with relays.

$350 per pair for LOW or HIGH beams on ebay ... so $700 a set of 4...

Which version of their round ones? I've seen a couple different styles; the earlier style that came out for military use with a cut lens and the newer smooth lens style.

There are gimmicky lights of all forms, and I do recognize the benefit of a HD harness with relays but there is only so much a halogen bulb can do. LEDs are here to stay, and a proper (not gimmicky) set will blow halogens out of the water.

I don't care for that Maxxima reflector already, too many facets, and those little ribs across the bottom of the housing are going to create a whonky light pattern. I've seen a few different housings with that design, and it seems like the light just scatters from them.
