is there anybody who's runner is very well utilized with on/off roads lights. my town always sees a good snowy winter and it sucks driving with only headlights. what other types of lights are good for night time snow driving and snow wheeling? especially when its actually snowing

 

HID H4 headlight conversion with roundeye H4 housings... $300 all together, but they work great.

 

Ah yes... see this "infamous" thread.

Old but CLassic! Post # 23 should clue ya in If ya don't find the lights... maybe you'll find a girl! Hope it helps!

 

my setup

hella 500 driving lights. cost about 60$ and easy to install.

 

so rock lights? alright...i was thinking those would be good for my runner as well.

as for the girl, already have one of those

 

i have Hella Black Magic and love them, but if that is out of your price range, i'd check walmart. (i know i'll get bashed for recommending them) but i found there some Phantom tri lights. 3 lights in one, driving/fog/theme. the driving lights are amazingly white and powerful, the fogs work wonders in real fog with a strong yellow beam and the theme are useless. If you want a pic, ask. They are small, and only cost $40 and came with all you need.

 

They get a lot of snow in Belize?

 

i dont know what kind of snow you have there but when its really snowing, like really hard, ive found that having your lights off is the best, just make sure you have some little ones pointed low or something to keep you legal

i have pro comp 130's theyre REALLY bright: http://www.4wheelparts.com/Lights-Li...9&t_pn=EXP9160

 

Lights? Only one way to go: Lightforce.

I haven't used them, but supposedly the blue filters are MAGIC in snow.

 

Yellow light does a good job in snow. Mount them low as you can.

 

i was watching ice road truckers and they say light force with the blue filters work good

 

Do you think blue would work for rain/ fog as well?

 

I'm waiting for someone to wire up infrared cameras and lcd displays for crawling. I imagine all you'd need are 4 cameras pointed at the wheels, no?
hint... hint....

 

Infrared mostly shows a heat signature. How would that help other than showing residual sunshine heat and the heat of the tires. (Or a hiding mouse) I need pics so I can understand better what you mean with this idea?

 

BajaTaco has a video rocklight/spotter system on his tacoma.

 

if you want really sweet lights for all around perfect in snow sweet in rain and fog there ok are the ebay sweeties

there purple!!! i had them in my neon with projector headlights and there sweet! there about 20 bucks or so

We've had good luck with Hella H4 (e-code) lamps in almost all conditions. We do a fair bit of high-speed driving in the winter when we go skiing. Just don't use the high beams in the snow, or all you will see is incoming snow.

I know that e-code lighting is perfectly legal in Canada, but may not be in all states. The Hella part number is 72200 for the 6054 rectangular replacement lamps.

 

Elton is preaching the truth. Scofco can chime in with his experiance. In the Yukon Territory most pickups and semi's run lightforces with blue or yellow filters.

There are several semi's and state trooper rigs that run the same set up here.

I'm saving for lightforce 170's for this winter.

I was implying something like night vision goggles.

 

For what it's worth, I like my Hella FOG lights for driving in the snow. Same principle, you don't want the light reflecting on the snow back at you, you want the road illuminated.
