Yo!

Looking for driving lights to fit in the airdam? (plastic ) front bumper- the slot would measure about 7.25" x 3.75 if I remove the platic divider. Anyone have an idea here"

Try Northern Tools. They carry alot of different sizes of off road/tractor lights.

 

If they are just for style, there are a lot of them out there. But if you want them to see where you are heading, stick with the known brands and don't be tempted by the low price jobs because they have terrible optics. The light is all over the place but not usually where you need it.

 

Okie Dokie-

 

Is the 3.75 the opening or depth? I agree with Bdox and go with a brand name. I run lightforce and really like them

 

3.75" is the height and 7.25 is the length and 4'' or more is the depth

 

Ok it square and not round correct? I dont have an oppinion on square ones. I would diffently go with a HID if you can afford it.

 

This work? http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/hella/550_flk.jsp

 

Good brand name. Are you looking for fog lights or driving lights?

 

Okay- I need driving- the Hella 550's-Bdox may fit- I guess I could also go with a round bumper bolt version. We have some dark road in northeast Fla... The lightforce look great- but ouch for the price... that would cut into my Edelbrock Performer intake manifold budget- but heck-ya1 those look good--- so, I;ve heard Hella and Lightforce-hmmmm driving lights is what I need

 

I have the 270's on my truck. Love them, bullet proof and man they light up the road. I can almost light up 1 mile of the road and I can reflect signs for a couple of miles. The HID reach out about the same but are a lot brighter. Of course they are also a lot more expensive.

Another option is get those cheap NAPA 4" or 6" tractor light that come in the rubber boot. Take out the existing bulb, throw on ground or smash with hammer, then purchase the 50 watt or even better the 100 watt, same size as housing, AIRCRAFT LANDING LIGHTS. Almost as bright as the lightforce and cheaper. I have them on my 4-wheeler and my neighbor hates it when I plow snow. They shine right into his bedroom.

Food for thought

 

That's awesome!!! You neighbor should put tinfoil on his window or mirrored glass HA!!!
Yea!! I'll git-r-dun this weekend!!

 

How's the hardware/ wiring/fuse and switch that comes woth the 550's? Should I get a better quality relay? Thought I read a post about switches/relays and that upgrading was the wat yo go??

 

I think you can trust Hella relays. Or if you are talking about replacing the factory relay it's probably ok too. Just turn on the lights and check the voltage at the light plug. If it reads the same as the battery, don't bother.
The commonly available Bosche relays are good.

 

Might place a pair on the snowmachine for this coming winter.
