Default Susquehanna Motorsports Headlight Upgrade

I received my upgrade kit today. Install might have taken 45 minutes if I include chatting with my neighbor. Install was pretty easy. I zip-tied my relays to the wire loom behind the battery and snaked the wires beside the battery tray. The driver-side cable is running next to the factory wires, but is is visible through the grill on the passenger side. I think I will slide some wire loom over it.

I ordered the kit with the Hella 60/55w bulbs. I ordered some 100/80w bulbs from Amazon and don't have them yet. May not want them!

Performance is fantastic! Well worth the money. Visibility is vastly improved. The road is well lit and the light does travel quite a ways. The cutoff is sharp with a visible wedge of light to the passenger side thar lights up the signs well. High beams are incredible! Highs and lows are better than my Tundra and it is really good. If you can't see well with the high beams on then you should only drive in daylight.

Very impressive improvement. Thanks to all that recommended them.

Here is a look at the lights through a powerful filter, similar to a welding hood...

I had the owner drop a card on my JK. I've been emailing him with questions and such. I should get over to Susquehana and check them out. Thanks for the thread.

I also have this upgrade and it's amazing compared to stock lights. I havn't compared it to IPF or anything else, but I assume they are similar. Almost anything is better than the stock housings.
