Hi,

I am planning to put additional head lights for my scorpio.
I am thinking of either going for Heall or for LightForce. I am thinking of extremly powerful headlights.

The only intension to put these additional lamps is to switch them on only if the truckers on the high way don't dip there high beams when I dip my default head lights.

Can someone suggest where I can put them in bangalore and the cost and if LightForce is better or Hella.
I am prefering to go for Xeon Lamps as they seem to be powerful. But I am not able to find the exact model.

Can someone please suggest me.

HIDs for the Scorpio are H4. Look for 4300k to 5000k for the best visibility.
Lightforce are huge lights, really good at lighting up the road but cost about 20k a set IIRC.
Hella 500s or 3000s are also decent. I have Hella 500s and coupled with my 90/130s and 55w stock driving lights I dont spend too much time in the dark

Thanks for the reply.

Where can I buy lightforce in bangalore. And can i fit Xeon lamps for lightforce.
which model in lightforce should i be chose. I don't mind paying 20K.

I would suggest you go for the Lightforce 240 Blitz. They are a class apart. Rally 2000 from Hella are quite good and cheaper, however they are not available on the shelf now.

Try pit stop I recollect seeing a pair of 240 blitz there.

Please find attached Light Force Product brochure. Very informative.
Found a shop in Coimbatore selling Light Force.

That's not what those lamps are meant for. It would be a dangerous practice to try and blind a truck driver who in any case may be inebriated at night, and can sideswipe your Scorpio in anger, with calamitous consequences for you.

At the outset, please do not think of fitting powerful lamps if your only intention is to blind oncoming truckers. Believe me, if the trucker does not dip his high beams, its only because of lack of road etiquette, rather than a deliberate ploy to blind you. Plus acting tough with a vehicle double your size has its consequences!

Now to the bright lights part. Think of fitting xenons OR hella/lightforce. The xenons will go into your existing headlamp setup, and will give out a field of bright white light thats very good for lighting up long distances.

Hellas/LFs are very powerful driving lamps, and retrofitting them with xenons is really losing the point. Get 2 Hella Rallye 2000/3000, and that should really serve your purpose.

LF 240s are the most awesome lights (I'm contemplating them myself, see the Poject Nomad thread) but more expensive.

Kumars auto agencies,Banashankari is the authorised dealer for light force in bangalore.But if i recall correctly the model 240 blitz with the halogens cost around 22.5 k and the one with the HIDs cost around 48Ks.And the top end model is the one to die for it is called 240 HID.it comes with a xenon bulb and the light output is one of the best in the world.but the price is also quite high.around 65k.so i would suggest you go for the 240 blitz with the halogens.worth the money spent.
Regards.

I d like to say here that "the intention" of blinding oncoming traffic can have disastrous consequences for 1: the Oncoming traffic 2: Yourself.

As a responsible driver and road-user, I would suggest please dont put these super powerful lamps if this is the intention.

the other best option would be to simply get a pair of roo lights or a pair of lightforce lights.they will be better than getting a xenon light.
They might be a little more expensive than the normal xenon lights but worth every penny.
You can also check out my link .am doing a jeep for myself and getting quite a few lights.have uploaded pics of the roo and lightforce lights.
it will be under :

You sure, you want some one to mount lights on the roof and that too a Scorp '.In an open top jeep it would make sense. Am sure there are better ways to do this.
lingadalli check out my scorp'. Simple and subtle no fancy stuff , does the trick for me.

Well the lightforce lights I told you about are also placed at the same place as in the pictures of the white scorpio.Just that they look much better and are much more powerful.
It may something like this .

Hi
Would anyone of you be able to help me get an answer to the question around the laws relating to the use (city/highway) of the extra spot lights. My friend was questioned by Chandigarh city police for installing them. It was day time and they were not in use but the cops were happy when a plastic cover was brought out and the lamps were covered. Is there any such law? Or is it city specific cops/laws.
I travel cross country a lot (quite a bit night travel as well) and have never been questioned by anyone in other parts of the country.
