Hello !! Anyone know of a good headlight replacement set for the old school 3 prong glass headlights that are found stock on the 03-06 kodiaks?? Mines a 04 c5500. The light output is terrible and to me borderline unsafe. Ive had cars from the 60's w/ brighter headlamps. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
Also, voltage wise, any know of the power requirements needed to upgrade them to say a halogen or HID lighting system?? thanks, BC:blahblah:

you can go with HID and draw less cuurent and get better lighting. You can try this link to see if there is a solution for your truck. I am not familiar with your lights. http://www.brightheadlights-hid.com/Chevy-HID-Headlights.htm

These guys sell plug n play sertups, not plug n pray. I got mine for the burb from them and install was less than 5 minutes.

;) Thanks again. It appears my lights are called a "sealed beam" one piece glass headlight assy. Another member pm'd me and likes the hella higher output sealed beam, so i figure if i can get 20-30% better output, ill be happier and stay safer too. cheers, BC
