[Ballzdeep]

17" fits in the 15 HD fills it nice. don't have a pic handy but dual row Rigid is best IMO

Took a look at the video, quite a job to install those though. I bought a set of ProWorx projector headlight bulbs already and am installing them on Thursday. I will install some better fog lights as well. And you are correct the headlights are terrible on those trucks.

Let me know what you think of those led bulbs from ProWorx. I need something in my 2019 Chevy projectors as well.

Its seems a bit overwhelming in that video but it does go pretty quick. Takes longer to get the damn headlight housings out of the truck. I've done 3 of these conversions and will be doing a 4th this weekend, hopefully...

Let me know how those ProWorx work for you, the LED tech has sure come along way in the past few years trying to replicate what HID's are capable of hopefully they are onto something with the Projector specific bulbs.

Still blows me away that GM sent these trucks out with lighting like that for the price that they cost.

As far as LED fogs go I reccomend the Morimoto XB from either FastHeadlights or TheRetroFitSource (TRS). They have a powerful LED paired with a lense infront of it that gives a very nice cut off and doesnt scatter light like most LED bulbs do when they are put into chrome housings. One really noticed this in the winter when driving through snow.... Especially on the GM fogs that have a shallow reflector.



Looks like they even have a black friday sale on the go, should help with exchange.
FastHeadlights can also make them chrome instead of black.
They are Also DOT approved.

I have a 2017 Chev 1 ton truck and wish to put a LED light bar on the front in the hole that is in the front bumper. Any recommendations on a light and how the install went. How effictive is it. Looking for brands, sizes, thanks.

Have a look at arurora light bars they come with high quality and good focused light best bang for your buck. 20” is all around best in my opinion and fits in those grills on many trucks. They look identical to the rigid bars from plug and play harness to the mounts but less than half the price.

2017+ GM 3/4 to 1 tons have a lot of changes from the 16. The engine and trans are different as well. Im now looking at behind the grill light as I could put a larger light and don't have to worry about covering air to the transmission. I already have an ongoing issue with the transmission and don't want to jeopardise the warranty when the transmission calves.

I had a 13" Combo, Flood & spot beams, It was great. Don't mount on top of bumper with the cast brackets, someone will decide they need it more than you and break the brackets.

Don't go too big or you really can't see once you shut it off and go to low beams!!

my bad Ron, I didn’t realize my 15 was that much difference to the 17’s. ����

Your truck is almost 3 years old, time to trade it in isn't it?

Ron, did you get those Proworx led bulbs in yet? I’m really curious to find out if they are worth the money or not!

Yes. They were from jbs Installing them Tuesday. Also I picked up a 84600 LM - 32” led strip light I’m going to install behind the grill but that won’t be in till Friday. I’ll let you know hoe the pro works lights are once we have our fist trip done. Which is this coming weekend

Before any are sold there should be a IQ test so many people are blinding the **** out of other drivers.

I found installing morimoto Fog/ Led low beam and HID high beams did the trick for extra lighting

 

[Ricki Bobby]

Ron, how are the Proworx led lights you put in?
