Lane Ranger 10,974 #1 Posted January 15, 2011 I installed a headlight bucket and new lens cover on my B-80 the other day and used it with the snowplow one night this week. Here is a video of the B-80 with eyes in action: http://s728.photobucket.com/albums/ww284/L...nt=100_9565.mp4 :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 15,535 #3 Posted January 15, 2011 Very nice. How far ahead of you did they cast a usable light? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lane Ranger 10,974 #4 Posted January 15, 2011 Bob: I would say 8 to 10 feet. They are not as bright as led bulbs but they are the blue sylvania type. I think they were about 7 dollars for two and they are brighter than the original type bulbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,535 #5 Posted January 15, 2011 That's not too bad. In many cases it is more about being seen than seeing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,171 #7 Posted January 16, 2011 I went out and bought a pair of those 1156 Silver Stars. $9.99 pr at Auto Zone for my C-160. The white headlight bucket paint was falling off so I got some HVAC foil tape and "re-reflected" the bucket. Then I cleaned the gunk off the inside of the lens. Haven't had a chance to try it at night yet. Thanks for the idea! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don1977 604 #9 Posted January 18, 2011 Just be careful some of those high intensity bulbs will melt the plastic lens. Don't ask how I know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coadster32 793 #10 Posted January 18, 2011 Nice lights. They certainly are worth the time. :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varosd 1,185 #11 Posted January 18, 2011 I have the light bucket for my B-80 but havent run the wire as of yet. I painted the inside of the bucket with white paint. I just have the plastic lens on so far, I have been using a LED headlamp to snow blow and really it works great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,171 #12 Posted January 19, 2011 Just be careful some of those high intensity bulbs will melt the plastic lens. Don't ask how I know. There's a gap between the lens and the hood on mine. Air -Cooled lights!! :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
