Opinions please - How do ya' like my new driving lights...

Thanks for the link. I had been wondering about the moisture problem. I didn't know they made seals. That's perfect. I need to get back out to the garage and finish the project. I just need to route the main power feed and make all the conncetions.

Looks like a nice clean job you have there. Congrats. I like what you have done with it. Simple and clean works best for me.

I like em a lot. Very nice.... the only concern that I'd have is that when using only the original light, the new lights might be blocking some of the light that comes out sideways.

Although that wouldn't be much of an issue when the KC's are on.

If it were possible to pull the KCs back even with the stock headlight, or maybe even somehow modify the stock headlight to move it forward to have the fronts of all three lights even, then it's fix that possible issue. But that'd probably be a major project, as stock wiring never seems to have any extra slack.

Here is the links to my setups.

WisconsinStev:

That's a good point about blocking the light from the existing headlight. The big lights do indeed stick out ahead of the headlight a little and they are pretty close. They can't be positioned any further rearward because of the windshield. I will do some testing to see if any light is being blocked.


Dragonslayer6:

Your lights sure look familiar  After buying mine at JC Whitney I noticed lights at my local Autozone and O'Reilly Auto Parts that were pretty much the same thing.

Your installation looks awesome. That location was my first choice but I have the gigantic Rivco air horns on the right side (I love blasting people with that horn!).

Anyone doing any wiring project must go to the Rattlebars circuits pages for sure. Good post.


I will eventually finish this little project. It's 22 degrees outside so it sure won't be today If all goes well I will get the brackets chrome plated and post some close-ups.

Thanks for your comments.
