Difference between Hella 500 and 500FF?
I just picked up 2 Hella 500's and 2 500FF's from someone I know, I have 2 1000FF's on it now but like the look of 4 lights better then 2 and the old 1000FF's on there now are looking old.
So my question is whats the difference between the two? Will one throw light rather and the other throw it wider or something?
Heres the 500FF's
And the plain 500's

I remember how descent the wiring was then and had help from a former member (slayenem) here install the lights as he was into wiring/splicin. I found that the 1000's were a cheaper the the 500's I originally wanted. We also did the blinker mod in case you didn't notice :)

Didn't Elon rewire the thing once?
And Whats wrong with the blinker mod, it's one of R-F's imfamous mods lol. Actually they're numerous "free mods" I can only remember.
-Blinker
-Front Bumper
-Foglight (they stay on when you use high beams)
-MAF sensor (should flow 40% more air then originally; Griggs saved me tons when I wanted a Granatelli MAF; hacked bottom piece w/o touching the sensor)
-Airbox silencer removal

IMO the blinker mod is gay when the lights are on at night, I don't like how it alternates at all and I wont keep my blinker on in a turning lane because how stupid I think it looks when the lights are on. Plus the wiring is a ball of electrical tape.
I noticed the Foglight thing, didn't look at the wiring for that yet.
The MAF thing isn't too great looking either, I need to smooth that all out.

The foglight mod doesn't require wiring. I took out the fuse and bend one of the coppers (pin). You can get a new fuse in case your not interested in that either. One of John Griggs' originals:

I couldn't find anything to sand the MAF down so I left it. I noticed a slight difference with the stock airbox but better with the Volant intake at higher RPM's hehe
