Wirlybird Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 We need new headlights on the Mack and would like something brighter than the original sealed beams. Any ideas on upgrades or kits to replace the original round lights? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wirlybird Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 Wow! Looked those up and $350 each! Think I need a more cost-effective option! It may be new sealed beans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wirlybird Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) UPDATE: Now that I have a closer look the parts I actually need are the plastic stand-offs for the adjuster screws, the adjuster screws and the springs. So far I have not found these. I did find replacement headlight cups but they don't have any of the hardware. Now I'm looking for a headlight mounting cup. One of mine the plastic standoffs are broken so the headlight won't mount. Should I just look for something generic?

Wirlybird Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 I think I found the right hardware on line. We'll see how it does once it arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mean Green Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 bought these for my wife's 1948 chevy they have a white halo and it turns yellow for a turn signal I might put a set in my b model but they might look too new Quote If your going to be a bear be a grizzly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mean Green Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 she likes them they didn't break the bank either just had a hard time wiring them up they had a wire wrong on the head light part and I was using the wrong wire for the turn signals but once I figured it it out they worked great Quote If your going to be a bear be a grizzly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
