upgrading the OG 2001 headlights our plan ! Posted by neil dale [Email] (#2111) [Profile/Gallery] (more from neil dale) on Tue, 19 Mar 2019 01:35:04 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
So ,We have a headlight improvement project for our 2001 9-5 similar to what we have done to our cars and motorcycles for 45 + years! It is relatively simple and very effective. We are amused, bemused? by all the folks fitting and retrofitting LED, HID & projector beams of varying effectiveness ( and great cost ! ) IMHO, as well as IME the back to the future approach is superior in every way except halogen bulb life, is rather limited - But no worries they are pretty cheap! We are using 4, 100 watt H-7 bulbs. two separate harnesses, w relays, ceramic H-7 bulb plugs - ( won't melt )- ( avail cheap on e bay/ Amazon , ) One for the low beam and one for the high beam .X2 Wired w/ power direct from the battery and the stock wiring only triggers the relays so is isolated from the high amp draw. This is an easy project! ( PS thx Jack ! )
