I know nothing, and have questions.
I currently have my stock fog light switch/harness running a set of hella 500 lights to offset my rather dim stock trooper lights.
I live in a semi-rural area and we have no streetlights and as such I use my aux/fog lights every day when I leave for work around 5am.
I'm wondering what I am able to do in the affordable LED arena to replace the hella's with something with more output. I know you get what you pay for, and that one can spend a ton of money on lighting, but I'm wondering if I can get into something in the sub $200.00 range that allows me to:
-plug into my existing harness without to much more than crimping new connectors.
-Not overheat my harness. It does just fine with my 55w Hella lamps.
-Give me a noticable improvement in early morning/dusk situations
If what I'm asking for doesn't exist, I'll just stick with my current setup but I thought I'd ask. I'm ok with bulb replacements or possibly even a whole new assembly. I'm a big fan of LED's due to the low amp draw, but don't know much more than that for vehicle use.
Thanks!,
