Yes ! Only disadvantage I can think of is that it's more important they be aimed properly. Otherwise the increased light may irritate oncoming drivers more. With a load in the trunk, mine are too hi

If you are still using standard headlamps switching to sealed beam halogens will make a significant difference. They give the most bang for the buck and use the same amount of current so you won't ov

If you are switching over to halogen head lamps and actually drive at night (it seems a lot of TRs are driven day time only these days), may I suggest IPF headlamps? IPF headlamps have a European sty

When you pay the extra $$ for the Hella, Cibie & IPF lamps you are paying for a more precision lens that is carefully aligned with the reflector and where the filaments would be located. As Dave men

While not required, relays are an improvement even with 55/60 watt bulbs, IMO. As I recall, those are the smallest H4 halogens available, but are still somewhat more power than the original bulbs. T

I guess the point I was driving at is that it is a light projections system where bulb filament placement and reflector contour are important. Many years ago I put some H4's on the wife's Datsun. One

Many years ago I put a set of Hellas in my Porsche 912. For no reason as obvious as taking a stone the reflector in one began immediately to corrode. That car never illuminated the road as well as it

I just blew a headlamp, so now I am considering what I'll replace it (them) with. The halogen options are tempting me. Is night visibility that much better than the old sealed beams? Are there any di
