HALO Headlights

I recommend getting Halo headlights for your truck. They're awesome, look great and easy to install.







You won't be disappointed.

Very nice truck you got there. Never did care for that type of light though.

I've debated on getting some too. Are the one's you have the more expensive version or just the $30-$40 ones that are on ebay?

By the way I love the rims you have on there.

Just connect them to your running light so that you will be able to have the Halos on without having the actual headlights on.

Thanks, man! Why not? It gives a new edge to an old truck.

I've always liked the look of halos on other vehicles, like beamers. So, I decided to put them on my truck and they're great!

They're the ones off of Ebay. I am not spending over $200 for headlights haha.. and thank you! I'm actually getting new tires and rims this weekend for it and I'm going to stick with the deep-dish look. My dad says that I should get moons but I just don't think they would look right or cool.

Nice truck, you are just up the road. I am in Clovis. I bought the $800 for my 74 Bronco and was going to do the same for the 79 F250. I did a comparison and the $800 Led by Speaker aren't any better than the Hallo HIDS I installed. In fact I was playing around with the new LED bi xenons. They are as good as the Speakers and at a fraction of the cost. They aren't as cool looking as the Speaker brand, but I like the function for the price of the Halo projectors. I also did all clear lenses with LED bulbs.

Nice! Small world haha.. You spent $800 for headlights? I hope they're worth it.. And those are just the regular LED Halos in your 79', right? Have you tried the plasma halos? I've seen those around and they look nice and can make them change colors. I think the LED's are the best at a good price, though. Nice truck, by the way!

These were HID + Halo projectors. These were not the cheap (what they call Plasma ( all that is is a color bulb that cuts light down). I changed the Hids(these are the tru Hids with the ballasts) out and they are now all (LED xenon) and are as bright as my $800 Speaker brand LEDS on my Bronco. Only thing the Speakers have is that they are fully sealed and submersible, the others are not, The Bronco would be the one that would play submarine of any of the vehicles so it made sense it should get them. Hey Got a PM from another local yocal from up in your area with a dent too. You old enough to have a beer we should try to get all the folk who have these to meet up someplace for a Ski or two?

That seems pretty nifty, being submersible. Sounds very cool, though! Unfortunately, I'm not old enough to have a beer. Doesn't stop me, though! That'd be cool to have a little meet with people with the same interests.

That's why I asked( disclaimer). I have had water over my hood on my last Early Bronco, it definitely would have benefited from the Speakers, it did have sealed Halogens though, Glad it had an electric fan I could shut off too. I had a crap load of old Ford here in Old Town Clovis. 4 on or around my block 70-79. Saw your gallery Beautiful truck, digging those Vans too, mine are red suede.

Hahaha yeah, I gotcha.. The first generation, early 70's, Broncos are by far my favorite. They look so nice. I've been thinking of putting HIDs instead of Halogens in for the headlight to have it blend in with the blue LEDs... Any pics of them Fords?
