Driveway flooded Monday night, had to get the 4215 out before daylight Tuesday to move a tree that washed across the driveway. That’s when I discovered that the headlights on these things are woefully inadequate for anything other than lighting up the inside of the barn.

I read on here somewhere that the 10 series uses a standard H4 bulb. Anyone know if the 15 series is the same.

Ordered a light bar to hang under the rops and a couple of 5” floods for the fenders, but I’d also like to upgrade the stock bulbs.

TIA

It should be H4 as well. The other problem with these lights is that they point waaay too high. There is an adjuster on those but won't make much difference.

I have a F36Rn which is the equivalente of the 3515R. Here is the before and after. I added two small 18W light bar to work in conjunction with the OEM lights. Even though those were small light bars it still makes a lot of difference.

That is a huge difference! Thank you.

I’ll likely replace the stock bulbs with leds, but the FEL will always be an issue. That’s why I’m thinking fender mounts.

On the rare occasion I use the tractor at night, the brush guard blocks much of the beam, and THEN I have the big round bale in front of that blocking the rest...
I've been planning to put a light bar on the ROPS for years, but just haven't gotten to it yet.
