I know there are plenty of threads out there about Hella lights, wiring good and bad ideas, Piaa vs. Hella and all things of that sort but I need a little advice.

I have a Yakima Load Warrior and plan on mounting Hella 500FF's to that. How should i go about buying these? Singles, the kit, seperate fuse box... what?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Additional wiring issues or thoughts as well!

Thanks!

 

id buy the light kit and just use some good 14ga wireing

 

Definately buy the kit, comes with relay, pretty good directions and an in-line fuse. I have purchased a set for all my trucks, but usually go with the 700FF's, like the beam pattern better, a little wider.

 

There's no kit that come with fog and driving lights are there?

 

Not that I have seen.

 

The kit kinda sucks, but most of the kits I see are so close to the cost of two separate lights (without covers) that its just worth it to get the kit.

Note that the switches they include suck, you will probably want to get a better one. And second, their wiring harnesses are not the best.. I prefer to wire the harness myself with fresh wiring and bump the main power wire size up to at least 14g
