Default I had a whacky idea putting hella 550 square driving lights in headlight holes

I just need to know how big the 550's are and I dont see why it wont work because I think they are the same size and they are just as bright as hid's which I currently have now. I think it would be an interesting experience to see if it would work or not. Does anyone have the measurments for the existing headlights?

If it fits in the hole there is nothing stopping you from making it working, besides the wiring and the custom brackets... Won't really be legal to use if there's anybody around you (if a bear ***** in the woods...) though.

The beam pattern is wrong for low beams. You'd be blinding everyone. It would be like having high beams.
