<VV> halogen lights

[jvhroberts at aol.com]

The problem is, there are NO decent HID lights that replace quad sealed 
beams. None whatsoever. Sure, you can get HID conversion kits for E 
code headlights, but the optics will be all wrong, more light into 
other drivers' eyes, less on the road.

The all out best option is the Cibie CSR headlights. Better than HID, 
and they're halogen technology. But WAY better optics than ANYTHING out 
there. I've seen these in action, they are amazing.

Higher  wattage (and generally illegal) halogens do require wiring

high watt H1  lamps, as in a quad headlight setup.

Of course, if you go "All out" and put a decent set of HID lights on  
it -
Those use less current during regular operation.  Not that I suggest  
this. The
E-codes at Daniel Stern are the best option. Do the wiring the right  
way,
too.
