Default hid offroad lights

Looking to getting a lightbar soon. With some lights. Im curious does anyone have experience with these 7" hid lights. Or any opinions on these seem like a good deal.

just get some off road lights and do a conversion. I don't know how much I'd trust the auto store version of HID off road lights. I converted my 4 Hellas to 5000k HIDs

I have the 4" Kragen/ O'Reilly HID's and have had 2 of them handlebar mounted on my quad for the past 3 years w/ no issues..Many friends w/ sandrails and jeeps also have them and no complaints. If I did have some used Hellas. I would convert them with a DDMtuning HID kit for sure.

I will have to check that out..I have bought quite a few HID kits from them..I live 20 minutes from their store, so I have dealt with them in person. Just was at the Huntington Beach store about 3 weeks ago to swap a bad ballast for a friends F250.

There is a guy on another forum that had pics of his truck with those lights at night. The light they put out was pretty awsome. His review of them was good enough to make me want a set.

I bought the slim digital ballasts and 6000K...very slight blue tint. I installed them on my sons last two quads and in the headlights and fogs of my F250 and my friends F250..
The raptor ones work just as well. I needed to save space on the quads, so I got the slim digital ballasts. I just bought the same for the trucks. If you do the fogs, they sell a relay harness for them there also..The headlight kits come with it. You can look on the website or call to find out the kit/ bulb you need...or in person at the store.
