Holley Retrobrights are the best lights I have run. They have a normal external appearance, too.

Agreed, really impressive.

I called Holley customer service/product development and asked them to make a 24 V compatible Retrobright. I’m not sure I’ll get much traction but hey, at least I tried.

Thanks for trying, let's hear how they reply. Also 24v here

It’s pretty easy to use 24v relays trigged by the original headlight wiring and just run the power for the lights off the 1st battery.

Which ones are these? I have to change all of my lights.

They seem to get more expensive every month. Maybe tariffs are hitting. I paid ~$175 each with a sale Holley was running over some holiday

Have you had any opportunity to compare directly to the Torfab setup? There's a significant price difference, Torfab is under $300 all-in. Just wondering if the price difference is justifiable.

I put the Torfab setup in about 2 years ago, and it's one of the best bang for the buck upgrades I've done. Would absolutely use their kit again.

I have not, and would be willing to say that $800 in headlights vs the $300 for Torfab your performance is likely not worth the difference. I really paid for the appearance of classic light housings.

Atleast they aren’t JW Speaker prices

I would agree. Without some special testing equipment, I can tell you the Torfab setup is fantastic. I went with the option that uses all 4 with low beams too.
