Hella 005750411 500 Series 12V/55W Halogen Driving Lamp, Multi

Been a Hella customer for 25 years. Quality of products are still the same high caliber after 25 years. I recently bought a Polaris General 4 and have been setting it up for my driving style. Needed additional lighting for nighttime trail riding. Decided to mount these on ther lower A-arms at the base of windshield. I proactivly bought the following mount in anticipation of these lights: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G2GQPFG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Delivery of the lights took all but 2 days. Very impressed with packaging, simplicity of included hardware, quality of hardware (included Nylock nuts) etc. The lights themselvs are good quality aluminum. Perfect size at 6" and comes with sleek black stone shields. Initially, I was hoping for the white ones for an old school throwback look but once I saw the black shiny finish, I knew it was going to look great.I casually started putting everything together at the breakfast table while while babysitting my neice and nephew. Didnt want to take away any QT with the kids so I had them find the parts for me as I assembled the mounts. The A-arm mounts were lying around so I proactivly mounted those to the lights too. So far: 10 min invested.Kids and I headed down to the garage and mounting the lights to the A-arms took about 5 minutes. Things were going so smoothly, I sent my niece back upstairs to grab the harness. When she arrived back down to the garage, she had the harness but left the instructions upstairs. No instructions needed. This is straight forward with bomb proof QD connections everywhere. Only 2 wires to hook up to + and - with ring connections already crimpped on and heat shrinked. My Polaris General has a busbar with 6 ports. I was able to bypass using up a port and mounted the rings righht to the main + and -. Flick the swithch and kids cheered! Super bright LED's worked. This is a 3 way switch so if you flip it all the way down, the main LEDs go out and a small accent LED comes on giving just enough light to cut the dark for trailside repairs/cocktails/p-break etc. This was a nice unexpected modern feature. Time for wiring install: 10 minutes.25 minutes total, casual install involving a 5 year old and an 8 year old without instructions. Seriously, a chimp could install these lights with successful results.I couldnt be happier. These are not $500 pencil beams. These are modern driving lights thatcast the same color as my Polasis's LED headlights but illuminate 2 - 3x as much and certainly wash over the periphels of the trail.Couldnt be happier with fit, function and expected quality. There's cheaper lights out there and certainly more expensive ones. For $135, it's not going to break the bank, your getting a quality name brand kit with a warranty. I'd pay $60 for the harness alone. It's that good.

Until I get some back woods photos, this one will have to do. It's bright as hell compared to my low beams and high beams. However, I'm up in arms about the Hella Off road Incandescent lights still providing better overall coverage. Installed on a 2015 Crosstrek. First photo shows, low beams with four Hella O/R Lights. Second photo shows, Auxbeam Spot Lights.Installation wasn't too complicated at all, a lot of customization went into mounting them to an SSD Front Rally Light Bar and running them inline with a switchboard. Took about 15 minutes to mount the lights down and run wires to a previously installed switchboard.I will say, the Hella 500FF's are a great addition to the car. It has an extremely wide spread, photos don't do it justice, they're the brightest Hella produces as an entry level offroad light. I wanted to go with the Black Magic series, but I'm glad I didn't. The BM series have the least amount of light output of the entry level offroad lights. I can opt for the black covers since they're on sale on Amazon as well, since that was mainly the selling point apart from the practicality of the bright 500FF's.If I needed more, which I don't, I'd buy Hella again! The drawback was the wiring kit and switch that it came with. Definitely not capable of running four lights on one kit of wires. The instructions were pretty much jargon, the switch wasn't that appealing. Understandable though, the wiring kit can work, as long as you can figure out the diagram they provide!

I used these to replace some OEM Hella 500 halogen driving lights. The difference was night and day. I installed the optional amber covers for dust/snow driving and they really make a huge difference. Don't be fooled by the "Value" line. They are an EXCEPTIONAL value for the price and compare to many top tier boutique brands of offroad lights. Highly recommended.
