Hi all, looking at a set of IPF
Driving lights, at the the right price (free) just wondering if they are worth the trouble of fitting? I already have a cheap set on the nissan, are they worth using or should I wait to see what else comes along.
Geoff

g'day, i've got a set of ipf 800's and find them really good. i would put them on, make sure you run the earth back to the battery and not just to the car, that way you can get the best out of them. what combination are they?

I would say the IPF’s will be better than what you have on there now
What type of IPF’s are they?

They should be good. I've got IPF drivers along with IPF's for the main lights. They work for
well for my limited night driving.

If the lights are not good enough you do have one other option. Slow down a bit. Having said that I have IPF's and they are great but get some clear covers for them.

I think most of my
