Sealed beam headlights

Sealed beam headlights

Postby jx2mad on Tue, 27 May 2014 7:19 +0000

The headlights on my '93 SR5 diesel are pretty ordinary, but I expect them to be like this. How can I upgrade my headlights? Is there another headlamp to which I can install brighter bulbs? Jim

Yeah, any reputable parts store can sell you a non sealed beam light. Just need the measurements of the old ones to make sure they don't stuff it up. Then you'll be able to run h4 globe you choose.
If you're really keen you could wire up separate relays to make sure there's no voltage drop in the old wiring.

the only way to improve lighting on those is a combination of semi seals inserts and wiring harness upgrade, they suffer from excess voltage drop on those models
