Headlight mods?

[JamesF250]

Over at another site (that I'm not allowed on anymore), I remember seeing a mod that replaced the wires going to the headlights. THis allowed more powerful bulbs to be used. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I want more light, what is the best way to get it?

Thanks.
James

James the following are comments I lifted off another site. I looked for a post that described the upgraded wiring harness but could not find it, if I do I can PM it to ya'.

I have had a set of Silverstars in mine for 3-4 years (forget when I got them, prety soon after buying the truck in Sept 2000) with no problems on the stock wiring. I just replaced the first burned out bulb last week.

Not bad for my money and quite a help for my tired old eyes at night.

No, And they are 9007s

You're probably looking for the harness kit at SUVLights which is on my list as well for upgrades

Yup I have seen that before

For brighter headlights that's all that needs to be done

That's it. Thanks. I remember seeing a wiring diagram so you could build the new harness yourself, but at $100 for the SUVLIGHTS, it may not be worth it.
