[DeTomaso] Headlights

[Charles McCall]

I'm assuming that is correct Mike - that they are plug and play by replacing the sealed assembly. And they do appear to make a huge difference, which is why I'm interested in knowing more...

David--and to be clear, youndidntnjust replace the bulbs, you replaced the whole sealed beam lamp assembly with replacement lamps, right?

The stock lamps are sealed and you can't get to the bulbs. For years people have been using halogen lights which have removable, replaceable bulbs that usually draw much more power to achieve brighter light, and can overwhelm the stock electrical system (particularly the headlight switch). Recently LED lights have come on the market which throw much more light while consuming less power. Is it safe to assume this is what you installed?

Happy New Year All!
I had stock headlights and wanted to do an upgrade. Love all the low
profile but didn't want to cut my buckets. Stumbled across
Vintagecarled.com
They had drop in bulbs that are half the wattage draw and a bit
brighter!
I'm calling it good for now.
Wishing a Very Blessed 2017 to each and every great Pantera person.
