    I desperately need to upgrade my headlights on my t800.

    Im considering the trux tled h102 set. It's a complete replacement assembly the will swap out both lights with an enclosed assembly. Anyone have these? do they like them? it seems like the lumens are similar to the jw speaker, but the set is going to be about $600 less.

    If the lens aren’t heated I’d stay away.....


    I’ve got a truck light set of led projectors and they snow pack brutality.... they are unusable in the snow......

    I now take them out for the winter......

    Don't know about their headlights but I am running these lights on the front bumpers of my truck.
    6" Super Powered LED Work Lamp (Spot Beam | 5400 Lumens) - Oval Work Lamps - Work Lamps

    You get about one season before LED's go out and they are always full of water inside and the lens scratch and cloud up quick. I don't find them good quality, but my dealer keeps replacing them for free constantly so I just keep replacing them, LOL.

    Hope they aren't on when anyone else is on the road. These ####ty LED headlight setups are a scourge.

    No, I have enough common courtesy to shut them off when I see the glow of on-coming traffic coming. They are wired in with my high beams so I only have one switch to worry about. But I know what you mean. 80% of the population nowadays is stupid and ignorant.

    I run in moose country so lights are your friend.

    @snowman_w900 ordered a pair for his truck. I'm waiting to see if he likes them before I pull the trigger.

    The guys he talks to that are running them are happy with the results.

    I need to get them installed. So far the feed back I got from the guys running them was good.

    As soon as I get them in, I'll let you guys know my opinion.

    well I bought the set with the black background today. $925 CAD :( I'm installing them tomorrow, so I can post some pics of what the finished product looks like. I'm just starting night driving season, so I needed to do something

    Has anyone had issues with both beams working properly? I've got a '97 379 that I'm trying to put these on and I'll plug them in according to what the instructions show and the lo beams, halos, and marker/turn signal works fine. Then i'll hit the hi beams button and everything goes out but the actual lo beams stay on, no hi beams come on and the halos and marker lights turn off as well. So i tried switching the lo and hi beam plug ins around to where the hi beam plug in on the headlight is hooked up with the lo beam outlet on the truck and lo beam on the headlight is hooked up to hi beam outlet on the truck. Now all the lights work including hi beams, only problem is the truck is still on the lo beam setting. Was wondering if anybody had any thoughts?

    On mine, I remember a hiccup of some sort. Do you have daytime running lights? On mine, when I turn on the HB all other lights go off. When on low beam the low /halo /markers are all on
