I previously bought and H ID headlight kit from rocks. I cannot find them online anymore and I want one for my new viper. Does anybody know of a good option?

I have tried HIDs before and I was not very happy with the results. I installed a set of PIAA H4-1608A LED lamps and am very happy with the results. Install is easy however pay attention to the details while installing.

Love my RoczToyz HID lights. I tried Sledlites LED's and while they were very good, I like the further distance of the HID. To each their own.

I would agree with you on the Sledltes, the PIAA LEDs are unbelievably better. I have an Apex with the HIDs and my PIAA lights are much brighter and wider. As far as throw is concerned I have never had an issue with the PIAAs. I have had issues with the HIDs, dependable is a problem.

Where did you get your PIAA’s? Did they cost a fortune and were they plug and play? Sorry for all the questions.

I bought them at Gary's Yamaha https://www.garysyamaha.net/index.htm?&referrer=https%3a%2f%2fwww.google.com%2f
I am sure if you call there they will ship them. I was going to use Amazon but I rather support the shops I depend on.
As far as wiring them, really simple plug to plug.

I need the headlights to work every time I need them, not after I have fixed them. Something to be considered for sure.
