International 4300/4400/8600/Transtar/M-Series Bi-Xenon Projector Headlights

Upgrade your International 4300, 4400, 8600 or Transtar truck to the latest in bi-Xenon projector headlights!  We’ve heard from you about how few and far between headlight upgrades are on these trucks, so we’ve worked to put together an upgrade that’s up to our standards.  It’s a more involved process than some of the kits we’re known for, but pretty easy for you as the end user–all you’re doing on your end is unbolting the old light, unplugging a connector, and reversing the process with the new lights.  Here are the highlights of what’s inside the new lights:

• A large glass lens and all metal bi-Xenon projector
• Ballast, bulb, and wiring harness are all completely inside the light housing.
• Cast and curved high beam shutter with solenoid actuator,
• Wiring harness with easy-to-read labels inside the housing
• Everything pre-installed in the light housings before they’re shipped to you!
  

What’s wrong with the lights that came on the truck?

The OEM International lights suffer from the same problems as many others.  The optics have been around for some time, and lighting technology has improved a lot in that time.  The transition from reflector-based optics, which were the norm in the 1990s, to projector optics is alone a big improvement, but this goes further with a high quality bi-Xenon projector for the best lighting system possible.

What about other kits out there that don’t cost nearly as much?

Many HID retrofit kits use generic components, matching only a bulb base. Others include wiring harnesses that just adapt from one bulb type to another. Included ballasts are often of poor quality, and have trouble starting quickly, restarting hot bulbs, or have slight flickers that can be bothersome. They’re the type of kits that NHTSA has ruled can’t be made to meet the performance requirements in FMVSS Standard 108. This kit is different.

Putting those so-called plug-and-play kits into your existing housings isn’t just illegal–it blinds other drivers while only marginally improving your vision.  To use an analogy, all you’ve done is upgrade to a bigger caliper weapon, instead of aiming at a target.  When you replace the light optics, you get a lot better performance in terms of seeing the road, but you also do it without creating glare for other drivers.  By doing it the right way, we’re also using a standard Xenon bulb–you can find a replacement bulb at just about any parts store should you need one (though life expectancies far exceed a normal halogen bulb).
