PhilD,

The 500 Round and 550 Rectangle were the first of the Hella's I ever used. I found them the other day in a box I stored 6-7 yrs ago. They were ok at the time. I also dug out a couple of KC 160w daylighters still in the box. Those I gave to friend with a new Ford HD. Now those lights get HOT.

Are the factory aux lights made by Bosch?

Jen at SUV lights has some Bosch HID's for 299.00 each. Jen says they use the same bulb and ballast as the Hella 4000's which cost twice as much. They will easily fit the H2, whereas the 4000's would require modifying the brush guard. And they would look huge on the H2.
I have a set on a truck and they look ok, but the H2's brush guard is wrapped too tight for these monsters.

Narva mades some smaller HID brush lights which would fit similiar to the KC's, but IMO look better. On the negative side, they have no US dealer and do not have any provisions for accepting credit cards and are shipped from Melborne, Aus.

If you find some fogs that will replace the DRL's I'd be interested.

Buddy
