Man I blame all this stressing the tension crap on mopar!
Now I got another thread I HAVE to follow.. not like I haven't been anyways lol

 

[double0ram]

Oh and I'm milking this one for all its worth, Just for making me wait to see your wheels and tires haha

 

[InDeepWaterBlue]

Gee thanks MadSoul now I have to suffer because of You lol

 

[double0ram]

You guys could always guess .... haha

 

[InDeepWaterBlue]

Head lights, tail lights, Torque Converter, brake rotors....

 

[double0ram]

Already have all of those done ha

 

[InDeepWaterBlue]

Hey I didn't say I'd give accurate guesses lol

 

[double0ram]

Valid point. Eventually you'll get it don't worry.

 

[double0ram]

Ok eventually is here ... well more so I need help/advice. Inside the box was Hella 500 fog pattern (free forms at that!) I spent the afternoon doing my hid conversion. And its done, not mounted though. There's 35w 6000ks in em now, but I'm debating a 55w 3000k yellow set up.

What do you guys think? My headlights and the 500 drivings definitely reach out, so the 500ff fogs are going to be ditch lighters and weather lighting.

 

[InDeepWaterBlue]

The yellows are great for rain/snow time driving as they highlight contrast a lot better than regular bright white lights. I hope I'm never in front of you lol

 

[double0ram]

I'm usually a pretty decent driver and use my hellas when its just me. Unless someone ticks me off.... then I turn the power of the sun on them.

The yellows have been an idea for a while. I'm really considering them.

 

[MadSoul87]

Yea I would definitely go with the yellows if you deal with snow and rain a lot... If not then might as well keep it all bright white on the front

 

[double0ram]

Thanks for the input. More waiting now...

 

[double0ram]

and at last.... my hella 500 project has been completed. its a good feeling to finish a project, and this one has been insane...

so without any further delay, here's the Hella 500ff Fogs with 3000k 35w hids.

right out of the box, halogens still in. notice inside the 500, theres a bulb shroud. i had to remove it as my first set of bulbs i put in (6000k 55w) wouldnt clear. i was up in the air about what bulb/color i wanted, and 3000k won out. I also opted down for 35w hids because the 55w 3000k wash out into a light easter yellow vs the 35w 3000ks being more golden.

with the 6000k 55w bulbs

and finished conversion, 3000k 35w bulbs

mounting and aiming was pretty fun, i got some good shots

this is the mounting, no aiming, there crooked, but i just couldnt help myself and snapped a shot

just the 3000ks

all hellas on

side shot, i sorta aimed em to the sides so as to light up more on the side of the truck

this is everything on, headlights, hella 500 driving, and hella 500ff fogs, or you can call it THE SUN for short....

and heres just the hellas with the covers on, kind of a cool shot

 

[double0ram]

when i get a chance ill snag some better day shots of everything mounted up, and then ill get out on the road for some shots of my ram blinding people ha

:knee7rm:​

 

[MadSoul87]

Bad ass man. Really like that set up. Hope I can modify the brush guard I get to hold four lights. Reps (when I can) for finally capturing the power of the sun.. Guess we got to start calling your truck Sunny-D.

 

[double0ram]

Thanks man. I still owe you reps for the lift.

I like the lights there, but they have a nasty wiggle off the paved surfaces. I'm starting to shop around for a light bar/lightcage or even a bolt on prerunner bar. Best part is with me having a 3rd gen bumper my options have increased. There really isn't much for the second gens short of a replacement bumper.

Too many options... and just when I thought I finished it haha.

 

[MadSoul87]

It's never finished man that's the worst part.

 

[double0ram]

Yea. I'd like to think I'd be done some day with the whole truck, but I'd only be lying to myself haha
