Hilux light upgrade

Post by GoTheLux »

Was looking to upgrade headlights in the lux. Currently have sealed beams (standard on 94 model) which are yellowy & weak as. ARB sell replacement lenses and bulbs (h4s) supposed to be about a 50% improvement on low beam. Was wondering has anyone done this & was it much better? thanx.

I have a 87 surf same headlights as what you run and i upgraded them some time ago repco sell a h4 headlight lens that goes in with out any mods at all just take the old one out and put the new one in.

you dont need to upgrade your relays or wiring unless your going to bigger globes IE 90/120s stick to 55/60s or what ever they are standard but buy the navra 50% brighter.

anyway hope it helps

here's a link to navra
