Greetings,
I recently purchased an '88 5KCSTQ and the headlights are not very bright
nor do they throw much light down the road (Although it is a lot better
than the 84 4KQ I had a few years ago...)
I would love to get brighter lights but don't want to undertake what seems
like the daunting task of rewiring the harness for a genuine HID upgrade.
I have seen ads on eBay for those "super bright" lights that claim not to
fry your stock wiring harness. Anyone have any luck with these types of
lights?
Plan B: I was at PepBoys the other day and saw a new Sylvania 9004 bulb
that claimed to be "50% brighter" and the bulb itself had a bluish tint to
it, although I didn't look at it long enough to determine if it had any
exotic gasses in it. Any word on this product?
Any recommendations and/or warnings greatly appreciated!
Best regards,
Minh
