I've been wanting the hellas, Damn expensive though. If you get them, let us know how they are.

Those are just Autopal brand lights. Please don't put HIDs in them.

That. Don't be that guy.

I assume because it won't focus the light correctly?

Those are Indian clones but will be fine.

I have Hella and Cibies

But you need a H4 harness for the added power and not melt your wires!!!!!!!!!!

 

Deltalights have some also

[banzai510(hainz)]

hope you have a H4 harness for those lamps.

stock wiring might not take it long.

I don't as of yet. Read up on it a bit. And tested it during the day. So far so good. But I will upgrade soon. Rather not have a meltdown. Exp while driving. However that link is out of stock. I could make my own, but I'm not crazy about electrical.

521 trucks are really easy to upgrade the headlight wiring. 

The original 521 headlight relay gets power on a red with a yellow stripe wire.  If you take that red w/yellow wire off the original relay, you can use it to trigger an added relay in the engine compartment, by the original headlight relay.  This added relay gets fused power directly from the battery, or starter, or battery side of the fuse block.  This bypasses headlight electrical power from the fuse box, cab harness to engine harness connectors, headlight switch, and its connector, and all the wires between that stuff.

 

Put a new relay by the original headlight relay.

Pull the red w/yellow wire off the original relay, plug in on pin 86 of the new relay.

Ground pin 85 of the new relay.  Turning the headlight switch should cause the new relay to click.

Run a short 12 gauge jumper wire from pin 87 of the new relay to the empty pin on the original relay.

Run a 12 or even 10 gauge fused wire to the battery positive, battery side of the fuse box, or the starter lug, from pin 30 of the new relay.

 

If you have a 521 with only three hot fuses, with the ignition off, the headlights and all the other lights use only one fuse.  A short in the tail lights, or added trailer light wiring can blow this fuse.  If that happens, taking the added power wire off pin 30 of the new relay, and plugging it on the pin on the old relay where the red w/yellow wire was, causes the headlight to come on, without needing the fuse in the original 521 fuse box good.
