Re: About to put in some bright headlights!

I did some extensive research on this subject not long ago. I found reports that the Hella 6054 housings have reflectors that make the spread between the high beam and the low beam too great for a car with low head lights like the Corvette. It was reported that when the low beams were aimed properly that the high beams were up off the road into the trees. Consequently, if the high beams were optimized, the low beams hit the road too close to the car and were unsatisfactory. There is a well recognized authority and seller of after market lights, Danial Stern. Go to his site and check out what he has to say before you make a $200.+ mistake. He was willing to answer questions even though I didn't buy from him. BTW, the only reason I didn't buy was because I decided to take a less expensive route. If I had spent the money, it would have been with him. If you decide not to go whole hog, ask before you buy the replacement "SilverStar" sealed beams by Sylvania.


Durango Boy,
There are no relays for the head light illumination on a C4. The relays are only for the motors that flip up the lights. Adding relays are a good idea with any lighting up grade.
