Frequently Asked Questions About International ProStar Driving Lights

What years and models of International ProStar are these driving lights compatible with?

Our driving lights are designed to fit International ProStar models from 2008 to 2017. The mounting brackets and wiring harnesses are specifically engineered for the ProStar's bumper configuration during these years. For 2018 and newer ProStar models with redesigned bumpers, you may need additional adapter brackets. Always verify your truck's exact year and bumper style before ordering, as mid-year production changes can affect fitment.

How difficult is the installation process, and what tools do I need?

Installation typically takes 2-3 hours for someone with basic mechanical skills. You'll need a drill with metal bits (usually 3/8" and 1/2"), wire strippers, electrical tape or heat shrink tubing, and basic hand tools including wrenches and screwdrivers. Most customers report the hardest part is routing the wiring through the firewall - we recommend using existing grommets when possible. The lights come with detailed instructions, but having a second person helps when aligning the brackets.

Will these lights withstand harsh weather and road conditions?

Our ProStar driving lights feature heavy-duty polycarbonate lenses and powder-coated aluminum housings rated for extreme conditions. The IP67 waterproof rating means they're completely sealed against dust and can handle direct water spray. Many drivers report using them through multiple winters with road salt exposure without issues. The wiring harnesses include weatherproof connectors and protective loom to prevent corrosion at connection points.

What's the actual light output, and will they work with my truck's electrical system?

Most of our ProStar driving lights produce between 3,000 to 6,000 lumens per light, depending on the model you choose. They're designed to work with standard 12V systems and typically draw 3-5 amps per light. We recommend using the included relay harness rather than wiring directly to avoid overloading your existing circuits. LED options draw less power while providing comparable brightness to halogen versions.

Can I choose different beam patterns, and what styles are available?

Yes, we offer multiple options to match your driving needs. Spot beam patterns project light up to 1,000 feet for long-distance visibility, while flood beams provide wider coverage for peripheral vision. Many drivers prefer a combination setup with one spot and one flood. Style options include round 7-inch, rectangular 5x7-inch, and modern LED light bars. Finishes include chrome, black powder coat, and polished stainless steel bezels to match your truck's appearance.
