I love my Sport Trac, but one of my major complaints is that the headlights - primarily the high beams - aren't very bright. They're sufficient, but I wish I could see better in the distance.
What are my options? So far I've come up with the following:
Right now I'm leaning towards the bull bar with some kind of auxiliary lights, controlled by an aftermarket switch somewhere inside the cab. The downside is that they would need to be manually controlled. The upside is that I'd have lights to fall back on if something happened to one or both of the main headlights.
Thanks.
If I go that route, what do you guys recommend for lights? Would they be a good compliment to the stock high beams, or really not enough to make a difference? Finally, does the bull bar interfere with any other common mods, such as billet grills (lower grill)?
What are my options? So far I've come up with the following:
- Running a relay directly from the battery to the headlights and controlling the relay with the stock headlight switch
- HID retrofit
- Bull bar + auxiliary lights
