Re: Holley retrobright 5700K headlight

Modern hard horizon line LED bulb at 5700k. Like a modern car has

These LED should draw less than the 40-60watt standard or Halogen lamps. I would suspect, just like conventional or Halogen lamps, using a headlight relay harness would still allow these LED lamps to be a bright as they can.

The headlight harness significantly improves regular & Halogen headlight brightness along with all other interior/exterior lights because the "load" (watts) is no longer going through the headlight switch itself.

Yeah the $400 to $800 cost for the LED is considerably more than conventional/Halogen but the Hollys produce a modern, rigid horizon (read less glare to oncoming traffic) bright white (5700k vs 3200k) headlight. Would you spend that kind of $ on improved brakes???...I think we have the same answer.

The poor mans version is the headlight harness and the Sylvania Silverstar 5700k which is a "bright white" headlight but not with the optics the Holly LED has
