This past weekend I seen on the POWERBLOCK on tv, the TRUCKS crew putting in a round 7" L.E.D. headlamp in a old 49-50 Chevy truck.

Stated they got it from a company that does JEEP off road stuff.

Has anyone seen or heard if they are going to make one for the G-bodies to fit the 4652 and 4651 style headlights?

Seemed to be plug a play, no transformers and a VERY BRIGHT!!

thanks

Just because it lights up, doesn't mean it is usable.

This is about all I could find for "headlight" bulbs. And many articles refer to these. They are DRL brightness, really not headlight brightness. Doubt any LED would be.

For a "bright" headlight, there have been a few HID headlight kits using motorcycle bulbs adapted to the rectangular housings along with some driver electronics over the years. Plus people using H4 headlights. Neither technically US legal.
