I have been on the fence on the lighting issue, but we now have an additional thought on the issue:

http://www.lrc.rpi.edu/programs/tran...fetyMargin.asp

I personally own a Dodge Truck, my wife drives a 300c, and I have 2 motorcycles.

My work trucks are a Chev 3500 and 2 Ford E-350's.

This info really is general interest, with the high cost of headlamp bulbs, and the fact that the advertised brighter bulbs have a much shorter useful life, I am not sure where you would put it in the forum.

HID's are such a better way to go on so many levels. I have them in all of my cars. They put out way better light, last a long time and look great. portland 2007 volkswagen jetta

Where did you source them from, and would you recommend them?

Headlight or bulb replacement time. Brighter is always better but lots of conflicting stories about what to stuff in the old Durango. I know at some point you get what you pay for but I would like to know what the tested best bang for the buck might be. Thanks, Matt
