LED Headlights

Anyone ever converted a set forward CH with halogen headlights over to led?

I converted one of my CH's to LED I bought mine from mack about 500 each they are all one piece. Another guy on here did one I believe he just put new headlights in and replaced the 9004 bulb with an LED replacement was alot cheaper probably a better way to go as it would be cheaper and easier to replace out on the road if one was to go out. They do make an amazing difference over the old ones.

Thanks.  My dad bought me a set of the led lights from Mack.  Are they hard to replace and is there anything unusual about the wiring?

I got our LEDs from the chrome shop in Wildwood FL, love them.

Not really hard to replace but the screws that holds the light in all twisted off or had to drill out because they were corroded in then had to put nuts on back side. As far as the wiring you have to get a pigtail that fits the light and cut your original end off and splice them together only 3 wires on each side.

And don't forget to re adjust them. LED's have a different lens pattern so the lights need to be set up not to blind on coming.

Yup, them damned things are annoying when improperly adjusted to oncoming traffic. City passed an ordinance going into effect on January 1 where you can be cited for improper headlamp adjustment. Two wrecks last year prompted that, one with a fatality.
