Brighter Aftermarket Headlamps
We all know the stock headlamps in ZR-1s–all C4s for that matter–majorly suck. If that bothers you and you want to do something about it, I have two sets of aftermarket, quartz-halogen headlamps for sale.
Both use H4-type, "high/low beam," quartz-halogen bulbs. Both sets have metal reflectors and glass lenses. One set are E1-coded lamps made by Hella in Germany and have 80/55-watt bulbs. The other set are E2-coded lamps made by the French company, Cibie and have 130/100-watt bulbs Both sets come with light bulb dust boots. Both sets are bolt-ins, that is: you take out your stock glass or plastic, sealed-beams and put in the aftermarket lamps. You may need to re-aim the headlamps to your satisfaction. Either of these aftermarket headlamp sets will give you better lighting during night driving. 40-bucks plus shipping for the Hellas. 50-bucks plus shipping for the Cibies. Email me at fin speed@netmotive.net if you are interested. |

Re: Brighter Aftermarket Headlamps
When I first got WARP TEN and had Marc do a lot of maintenance and improvement items, we discovered that one of my headlights was cracked. So he replaced the old stock H2 65/60 watt OEM headlights with Hella H4 85/80 watt off-road units. Also re-aimed the lights. Definitely improved visibility and not a problem for oncoming drivers despite the off-road designation.--Bob

Re: Brighter Aftermarket Headlamps
I put a set of Cibie H4's on my full-size Bronco and it was almost the best mod I did to that truck. They were flat freaking amazing, and the cut-off for low beams was perfect. I liked them so much I moved them to my new (same era) f350.
You guys are going to like these, but I'm a cautious guy so I made sure to put them on high for 10 minutes then check the wiring temp. Come to think of it I didn't do that on the new truck - yet. Cheers, - Jeff |
Re: Brighter Aftermarket Headlamps
Instead of watching the wiring temperature, I check the current draw with an EXTECH MA220 clip-on DC ammeter. (The handiest tool for tracing electrical gremlins too.) Knowing the wire size, I know the maximum safe current the wire can handle.
