SR Viper HID/LED Recomendations.

[savageman69]

leds have come a long way....however we are talking about a older reflector based light design and hids just out throw leds in this lens....hids hands down super bright love them...all 3 of us that ride procross chassis love ours.

After reading this thread I purchased a set. I've never been into night riding because of crappy lighting. This LED kit changed my mind....they are amazing and I don't need to use high beams anymore. At $70 shipped to my door, I wouldn't spend the $200 plus for HID's. They plug in just like a bulb, no balist's to mount anywhere etc. The first pic in the thread is what sold me on them...and the price. All my buddies were shocked when I was following them at how much my lights lite up around them.

Will these bps g2 fit the viper, looks to me like the fans on the back would interfere with the bracket that holds both hood pieces together

Awesome, thanks for the reply, I've already ordered a set, I thought worst case I would have to trim part of that bracket to clear the fan on the back of the led.

Sorry I can't seem to find but what type of bulb are in the viper? Really interested in switching to LED as my lights are like driving to candle light

My buddy never told me that he had to do any modding to anything. on my Nytro I had to trim the two snorkel type parts on the rubber boot that goes around the build butch took 2 seconds

Murdered, can you post the link for the Led’s you purchased and when you install them can you post your installation findings, plug and play, modification etc.... Thanks

Will do, i haven't received them yet, bought them on eBay from a company in Canada, the 16000 lumen led ones were not easy to find, only paid $60 with shipping, should be much better than stock, i just wanted a lower cost alternative to the $200+ hid's with ballasts, should be plug and play, ill chime in once i receive them and the install is complete

I agree with all on stock lights suck. What i don't agree on is the hid's i think led's are alot better. I did try Roc's they are nice but did not like that you could not aim them right when you get the high beam right the low beam was right in front of sled or when you got the low beam right the high was in the trees, but it is a nice plug and play set. I tryed led's in my sled first and liked them alot then there was talk of the hid kit and how every one loved them so i tryed them. I am now running a set of led's from SBP they are B2 16000lm in 6500k and love them $48.00. They are triangle shape one side for low and then all 3 sides light up for high. There is no blackout when going from low to high like the hid as low stays on all the time. They are just a remove old bulb and plug new in no cutting for fans and you don't have to mount any ballistics. murdered137 sounds like you are getting same set i have they are nice and white and bright i love mine!

Great to hear as i cant wait to put mine in, i disassembled the entire hood to get the bulbs out, seems like you need a little Japanese guy or a 6 year to get to the bulbs, no biggie, good time to clean off all pine needles and twigs from offtrail riding.

I agree the led is better close up just doesn’t get the distance of hid personally either a new reflector or add on lights is best.
