Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

did you put a relay harness in for it? or was it just straight plug in?

^^^^^^....what clyde said...Mahalo

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

I bought h-4 straight plug ins I have to go to work right now but I will look up the guy who sells the lights real cheap higher shipping from overseas Japan I think.
So far in two months of use no overheating problems, all I did was change the light housings (which come with a h-4 light already installed) and put in the I think 8005 brightness lights?
Ok here is the ebay seller...

OldSkool71,

I live in SoCal... so if you want to check out my Xenon lighting setup you can.

Also, I would be interested in seeing/learning about your gas tank relocation as having more space behind the seat (and the elimination of the gas sloshing sound) would be nice.

But these are plastic, yes? UV rays and a couple of good sand storms and they are history.
If they are glass then great!

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

I can't speak for the other types/brands of headlights discussed earlier in this forum, but the Xenon headlights (from Classic Industries) in my 1971 are glass.

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

kiwi the info you posted show for 88-98 will this work for the 67-72?

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

Cbrown67,

Huh?

1. The photo posted was from Classic Industries catalog for 67-72 Trucks.

2. Those are the exact part numbers that I used for my truck ... and the parts work/fit.

Maybe I'm missing something here.

ahh yes my bad!

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

I like the ones with the led rings,
the blinding oncome'n traffic is an issue,but those eye lid covers that cover the top 1/4 of the glass , fixes this issue,

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

what about the "diamond cut headlights" that classic industries sells? has anyone used them? do you need the wiring upgrade that they sell? would they be a direct fit with the original wiring? any info on these ?

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

Mine are glass and 2 months now and crystal clear!

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

i did my conversion over a year ago, and everything still works great. it consist of cheap flea bay diamond cut conversion 7" headlights, cheap craigslist hid's, and cheap junkyard relay harness.

Re: 7 inch Conversion Headlight?
 

This is such a wonderful forum. I just scored two 2008 Jeep headlights on Ebay for just under $60 and two adapters for about $15. Thanks for the great ideas.

This was before I tore it down for the restoration...
