B3030 cab lighting upgrades?

Granite Tractor · Dec 4, 2019

Has anyone upgraded the headlights or cab mounted lights on a 3030? I've seen several threads for other brands/models here, but am looking for something that ideal is a direct replacement for stock (either bulbs or entire light).

Thanks

I replaced the cab work lights with LED units that were similar in form/shape of the stock Kubota units. The light output is significantly improved and found the headlights are never used anymore. Reused the stock connector.

Here's an example: https://www.amazon.com/Nilight-6-5Inch-Lights-Driving-Warranty/dp/B00IZ9VAOI/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=36+watt+led+light&qid=1575552452&sr=8-8

I also replaced my cab lights with LED units. I have a B3000 but I don't think it is much different than the B3030. I only used the original brackets and the existing wiring to mount lights in both the front and rear of the cab. Lighting now is much improved over the original Kubota incandesant units and current draw is very low compared to the original units. Each of my lights are rated at 27w and put out
a very white light. You would be surprised about how bright the work area is now when you turn on these LED lights.

I also hardly use the tractor headlights much anymore because they add so little light when compared to the LED units mounted up high on the cab.

Thanks very much for info! Just bought a car with LED headlights and the Kubota lights seem like candles in comparison

Will take a look at these.

I upgraded the OEM Headlight bulbs with these on my B3000:

Amazon.com: LUYED 2 X 17 Lumens Extremely Bright 1156 414 12-EX Chipsets 1156 1141 13 756 LED Bulbs Used For Backup Reverse Lights,Xenon White(Brightest LED in market): Automotive

They are MUCH brighter than the standard bulbs and use less amps.

In addition to that, I mounted 4 LED Work lights. (2 in front, 2 in rear) to replace the OEM work lights. They are made by "RIGID", and made a HUGE improvement in work light.

I can now easily cut grass and blow snow with super visibility.
