LED's

What is everyone doing on these nowadays? Have one out and figured I would replace both.

I went with LED ( and as of late the headlights also) On the fogs, the right side is a snap ( literally ) ------- the left side NOT SO MUCH.

LED's for sure.
I went with a set of headlights and fog lights from Lamont.

LEDs are the way to go...if you buy Lamonts which I did, the headlight case you will need to modify.

I have been told that TRIC LED headlights you don't need to modify the headlight case.

Thanks!!

FOG LIGHTS

Thanks!!

...If you do the Fog lights .... take off the Frunk , it's a bit tedious ,,, but about 1/10 as tedious if you try and do it any other way. There is ZERO clearance, so if you don't get it perfect it ain't gonna happen ...... good luck .... Mike ...........PS please get the LED type :yes:

 

[Bob Denman]

:agree: I watched the TricLEDs team struggle for over an hour with mine (With the Frunk still in place.)... And they know they're doing! :shocked:

I went with Tric-LED head/fog lights. I had the right side burn out with the OEM bulbs last month.

I also have radio inference with the Tric-Led head/fog lights. Which I am working to get resolved. I have a 2014 RTS-SE6. I'll post the results next week. I am getting them changed tomorrow @ the dealership.


**** 9/28/2017 here are the results on my Tric-Led head/fog lights: I did get them installed and WOW what difference, a lot brighter. More visible. ****

and when you DO take the frunk off it would be a good time for a"doc video
of fog light install and removing the frunk. hint, hint!:clap:--irv

 

[Bob Denman]

[Roadster Renovations]

FOG LIGHT INSTALL VIDEO

If the frunk is OFF you can do the FOG lights with your eye's closed ...... I'm not kidding, it's that easy. .... The problem as I stated above is there IS NO CLEARANCE ......not for the light cover or the hands that do the work ........... Mike :thumbup:

one of the techs at johnson creek who puts on awesome seminars each year
showed us how to take one off sat. he stripped the entire machine down.
very informative. :bowdown::bowdown::yes:--irv

Its not necessary to remove the frunk to replace the fog lamp bulbs. We do them all the time. I did have to watch Lamont's video a couple times to understand how he was accessing them but once you know how, they are not that hard. Especially if done while doing the head lamps as the required body panels will already be off.

 

[Cindy-TricLED]

no modification

** correct, no need to cut / modify the headlight casing with our bulbs..

Any chance you could post that thread
The only ones I've found show headlights on all Spyder's RT's or the access for the Fog lights on the pre 2014 998 Spyders RT's
There has to be a way to access them it's just knowing the best way

Thanks JC
Still no joy on his videos looked under Spyder videos and lighting
only information given is as follows:-


Lamonster RT Ultra Bright LED Fog Lights
"Price Includes Shipping"
This is a direct replacement LED for the RT OEM fog lights. Fits all RT Models 2010 - Present.
Just like all of our products we have tried and tested our selves before putting the Lamonster Name on them.


The LED's are "Plug and Play"

Low wattage and power saving.

Instant-on, Instant-off.

Less than 25% amp draw compared to incandescent.

Lumens- 800
Color- 6500K


On the 2014 on you can change them out without tools and without removing any body panels on the right side, the left side is a little more work.
No link to any video
But thanks for trying JC
