Question for you, have you had any melting issues? I plan on using KC HiLites 57 Series long range lights to augment my medium range HID's. I plan on leaving these halogen but using 130 watt bulbs.

Has anyone had issues melting their grille when using halogen lamps?

 

Yourr the only one that I know that has them behind your grill!

I'd be interested on this also cause I got some spare 150 watts off road lights I thought of putting behind the grille also!

 

Mine are HID, they run far cooler than Halogen. That's why I'm asking.

 

put my lights on a while ago and no melting.. yet. But my lights are not that powerful.

 

there are a few guys in 3rd gen that have them behind there grill. i havent seen anyone post anything about melting.

 

thats cause they have a place to mount them.

 

You're right, and these are second generations. A 100% different truck.

 

go for it.. only one way to find out? I'd say you'd be okay.. a lot of air moving around up front

 

yea i would just make a space and run the off those thing behind the grill i gess they support your rad.

 

no kidding. but the theory is still the same. hot lights blasting on plastic. that was my only point.
