Crappy headlights

[FatBoy89]

My last 4x4 suffered from big globes/reflector issues. I was running 100/130's which were fantastic...200,000 kms later, the lights were worse than standard lights.

Ahh I'll just stick them in there. If they increase isn't enough I'll just rip them out for some HIDs.

If anything i think the reflector in the headlight itself would cop the beating.
Have you had any issues with yours Burning?

No mine haven't burnt yet. I've had the in for about 20k I have the ceramic plugs just in case. I did an upgrade on my old patrol and the plugs started to melt. Better to be safe than sorry I spose.

I know there are different types of 'Fatboys' though. Got more of a selection if you buy from overseas. Can you remember the exact ones you got? If your like me you wont have a clue though.haha

IPF Fatboy II Super Clear and Max White H4 Bulb Pair Pack

I got the Fatboy II Super Clear (Clear). Maybe the max whites are better I dunno. You buy some then we'll both know.

A lot of good info. I have ordered mine so hopefully will be here next week. For $20 i'm not expecting miracles but if they are as white and bright as you say Joshp82, it will be sensational!

I wouldn't say they are super white. But they are very bright. Make sure you adjust your lights down.

Stupid question, how do you adjust headlights down?

There are 2 adjusting knobs on each. Just stick a long Phillips head screw driver down the slot and turn. Not sure which way tho.
I'll get a picture of them later

Edit
Here are some pictures. You can see the little adjusted knob that the screw driver turns. Sorry for the crappy pics. It's late and I only had my phone on me.

I just finished doing my HID upgrade, 130 Bucks for High low beam H4's 35 watts. All plug and play took all of about 20 minutes to install. Also upgraded the Narva 225s to 55 watts. 100 bucks for those. www.superbikesupply.com.au Even delivered them to me at yatala.
