Off Road Lights - Continued

[kickapebble]

I recently purchased a set of KC Daylighters, 100w. I ran the same lights on my 85 F350 and they made a huge difference. I installed them behind my grill on my 04 Expy, and I must say, I think the brights are brighter than the KCs. It may be because the grill is cutting down the light, the grill is shaped like a mini blind half closed...
I was thinking of swaping out the bulbs for 150w ones, and finding an alternate mounting location; (Thanks to SOLISIMO for the link in the other off road light thread)
I like the way the lights looks, but as far as funtion, I think the normal headlights are comperable. This is probably the case with all clear head lamps... Just wanted to share if anyone was wondering how the KCs are.

 

[Steps]

The 150w KC lights do not use a conventional bulb like your 100w lights do. The whole housing is one piece. Keep that in mind when making a decision.

I would agree that your grille is probably the issue. I have an 04 as well and purchased a Grille Guard for my lights to ensure I get 100% of the light from the KC's when I order them. So I would agree that an alternate mounting location would help.
