Calling all 5700XE owners/drivers--Need your help with headlamp bulb

The HID requires an external box that needs to be mounted somewhere. That box is also subject to all the vibration and rough ride of a semi.

The LED does not and is likely less expensive.

After seeing the results of the LEDs I got I really can't imagine HID could realistically be any better.

I could be wrong, your mileage may vary, so on and so forth...

Just a thought...

 

A friend of mine has a 5700XE and he goes through headlight and fog light bulbs like crazy. Even the LEDs seem to be going out and I think the latest once he bought were made by PIAA.

My 4900 came with sealed beam head lights. Talk about a slap in the face. I replaced mine with Speakers LEDs. Big difference and they are holding up to the rocks better too.

 

Re the JW Speaker lights:

Yeah, I'm in agreement, they must have been expensive.....

My question is HOW WELL DO THEY WORK? Are they even sort of worth the cost? Anybody have a set that they would like to report about?

 

I don't think he has looked at HID conversion yet. The LEDs were about $340.00 each.

 

They are worth every penny in my book. I do spend a lot time in the dark during the Alaskan winters. The sealed beams the truck came with were an absolute joke. Also, I pretty much had to replace one on each trip due to rocks going through them. I actually polished the Speakers again today since they looked hazy after the long winter. I bought them at the NAPA Traction store in Anchorage and they have pretty fair prices. About $340.00 for each one.
