I put some ebay X9 LED bulbs in my LMC light housings. Much brighter than halogen and I haven't been flashed for them being too bright.

Thanks for the info.

Like you said.....I just want a little better lighting, not necessarily LED.........Maybe your suggestion about just getting the LMC truck lenses with 9011/9012 halogens is best. We only use the high beams every so often anyway.

.....So, I searched for LMC Truck housings, not seeing anything that will fit. Do the 9011/9012 bulbs plug-n-play with my factory power plug?

.


I think it says direct bolt on because it uses the H7 light bulb...just a 2 prong hook up. I don't know if that is street legal, maybe for motorcycles.

LMC made their search function stupid! You have to put in the make and model before you search 0302

I entered 1988 Chevy 1500 truck.

It does not say these fit our cars, but they do.

I may eventually get these, especially for the high beams.

If you try them out, let me know how the quality seems.

The 9011 / 9012's use a totally different connector then our OEM bulbs do, unfortunately!

Hope this helps you!

Also, I combed the internet -- this is a pretty rare part at a fantastic price -- some of these headlight "kits" are 100's of dollars!
