Default Headlights

Couple months back I got a pair of some off brand headlight housings off ebay thinking I'd get better light output and I thought they looked cool. Didn't see much improvement there. I upgraded the wiring harness a couple weeks back with the LMC truck brand and saw a bit of an improvement but was incredibly surprised about how little of an improvement it was. Well two nights ago one of the bulbs burned out after a only a couple weeks of use and in my somewhat drunk wisdom figured I would kick it thinking that maybe the wiring harness just got detached or something and it would fix the problem. Shattered the glass of course and resulted in me putting the stock headlights back on. Amazingly brighter!!! Basically what I'm getting at is to do your research before buying. Those china knockoffs just scattered the light pattern and were useless.

Get a set of AutoPals off EBAY. They are amazing. I have AutoPals and the LMC Truck Heavy-Duty harness.

Autopals are headlight housings and the harness is separate. Like I use autopal headlight housings and a putco harness.
