LED Off Road Light Bar s13. Opinions? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

What are your thoughts on a Off Road LED light bar mounted on the front bumper of a lowered s13.

This is not my 240 but id put the light bar right under where the license plate is.

Doing some night time rally racing? if not, then no. ugly and pointless

ToastyRichard · 08-18-2013, 09:34 AM

night time drifting and also normal driving because the stock headlights suck

ktm47 · 08-18-2013, 10:16 AM

HIDs. Just get the single not the high and low beam since you might be on a budget.

There are so many HIDs in various price ranges now.

Don't listen to this stupid idea. Do not do HIDs unless you are willing to do the full retrofit otherwise your lighting quality will not improve much and you will blind other drivers. Go drop 50 bucks on the best silverstars you can and it will be just as good as a bad HID conversion you will end up doing on a budget yet you won't blind people.

+1

HID kit in non HID housing sucks balls

This post is so Florida, it's not even funny.

Just because you slap some shitty LEDs that don't match your car at all on there car, won't become an Audi, or any other "modern" car with up to date lighting.

Of course, why would you half-ass anything?

As much as my idea is stupid it's not my problem some of you cannot afford quality parts and have to resort to inexpensive options and decide to run HIDs on non-HID housing and not adjust your headlights so it's not aimed at other drivers.

Jeeeez fuck people wake the f-up and install legit parts the proper way the first time. Can't afford it then go get a bicycle...or better yet just walk.

You know how all these aftermarket lights say "for offroad use only" For some things it's okay to use on the street but for LED light bars that's really not the case. These are incredibly dangerous to use on the street because they are beyond blinding, easily 10x worse than a crappy HID kit in sealed beams nor are they safe for the driver because of the way the light is concentrated. I hope a trend is not starting here...
