Cibies

 

Jon, good post, that's about exactly how it looks.
These pictures are a bit deceptive however, looking at them you would think you could actually see something with the factory low beams! Also, the Cibies are brighter everywhere than the factory low beams are anywhere, there are no lack of lumens with the Osram 80/85 watt bulbs.
The cut off of the Cibies is much better than that of the factory lamps, I tend to run the cut off pretty high, right near the upper lip of the trunk lid on those Camrys around here at 50-75 feet, never been flashed set this way and you can see way down the road.
You see how the light kicks up to the right to illuminate road signs, well it's pretty bright. Not sure I'd want more brightness as the reflection from speed limit signs is pretty intense.

Notice how much more foreground light there is from the Cibie headlamps as well as a far smoother spread of light. It's not too much light up close, like you often see with HID non projector units.

With the factory lights I always felt that I needed the fog lamps lit to be able to see well enough to drive at night. There was this jet black "hole" in front of the Jeep without the fogs on, and it required real concentration to make sure you didn't run over something in the road, 'cause with the small coverage area of the factory lows you only get one brief chance at seeing it!

And of course we haven't even mentioned the high beams, they are about as good as the 130 watt 8" KC driving lamps I have on the bumper. And perfect placement of the high beam hot spots relative to the low beams.

 

UFO sighting??????

 

Last night I drove home at night from a job site, about 45 miles on dark back roads and a very clear night.
I was driving the Lexus IS350 with it's wonderful HIDs and excellent halogen high beams, but I missed the lights on my Jeep!

 

can you run an HID inside the Cibie Housings? or with the 80/85 is that really unnecessary?

The truth is the 80/85 are almost too much, I'd like to see the results of HID capsules inside the Cibie housings.

 

I dont think the results would be all that great. Bulb placement in lamps is critical. I had one of the first 85/80w+50 bulbs get a big bulge in it, I think due to holding the stalk back too long with both the lows and highs, anyway the bulb still worked but it really screwed up the light pattern coming from the lamps. DS told me if the filament is not just the right shape and position it will really affect the output. Wont hurt to try it though.

I really like the 85/80s. Bright enough to reach out yet not enough to attract the law. Just wish they lasted more than a year.

 

Thanks for the tip! Ordered your setup tonight!!

 

You won't believe how much nicer driving at night will be.
You can actually see where you are going with the upgraded headlights. And they are terrific in bad weather.

Don't be afraid to set the cut off at what seems to be pretty high. It is such a sharp cutoff that it won't be bothering other drivers near as soon as DOT lamps.
And with the lamp optics kicking the light up to the right, you can spot things on your side of the road very easily, you'll be impressed when the speed limit signs light up like you hit them with high beams.
And of course, the more traditional lamps look a heck of a lot better on the Jeep vs those dang plastic bubbles it comes with from the factory.

 

I have e-mailed that stern guy probably 10 times trying to buy some of these.....no reply at all!!!

Frustrating
