I've been casually doing upgrades to my raptor and was finally at the point where I was going to upgrade my lighting. I was set on using the LED kit from HIDSRUS but this weekend I went to purchase my kit and the website no longer exists. Does anybody know if they are out of business/moved to a different website? Any substitute lighting I can do where I don't have to install pod lights?

I’m curious what will happen with Hidsrus as well. Apparently the owner was struck by a car or something and killed not long ago

That's unfortunate to hear. Hopefully the knowledge has been passed down and someone can continue to make great products.

I could be wrong, but I doubt they actually made the bulbs. They were just a vendor. I would imagine they’re still available somewhere, it’s just a matter of finding them

Hmm maybe some of the previous customers can chime in and perhaps note a manufacturer. I have been on google looking up all kinds of venders but no luck so far.

This is the box mine came in, each bulb had its own box

This is great info thank you. Hopefully I can find something that way I can post results

I bought some cheap ones off amazon which had great reviews, but actually dimmer than stock. Sometimes get what you pay for.

Do you mind posting the link if you have it

You’re interested in dimmer than stock leds?

The ones I got from Hidsrus are 4000 lumens each, I wouldn’t go below that. They are quite bright, you could probably go less and be alright with the results. But that’s the benchmark in my opinion

Oh no I think what you got is perfect. I looked up some information from the box above and I find the same product but it comes from AliExpress. Not sure if the fitment is the same or if the connector works. Maybe getting one and splicing the connectors….

 

[raptordude]

Can you post the link? I’ve been looking myself. I found some that look very similar but they’re 5,000lm per bulb. That would be even better if they fit

This is what I found. Just trying to figure out how to connect H4 adaptor to the raptor.

That looks very very similar to what I have. I would just cut the plug off and solder on the plug from your stock headlights. Use some watertight shrink tube. Hidsrus was charging $160 for a pair of those bulbs with the proper plug and play connector

Maybe I can order one and see if it works. I was trying to find the name of the connector that plugs into the raptor. In case it doesn’t work I can always fall back on to factory wiring.

This is what I’ve found so far.

I’m interested as well. I don’t mind cut/solder/heat shrink if the bulb fits in ok. But have never ordered from baba before

I ended up ordering one. I’ll keep you posted on results. I’m assuming the quality will be bad. But you never know.
