Dick, for good info on headlight upgrades check out
<http://www.team.net/sol/tech/light-up.html>. It has lots of good tips. I
have relays and E-code (mine are Hella but there a lots of other brands)
lights and you just have to see the difference to appreciate how much better
the light output is, especially since the light is properly focused instead
of the blob of light you get with US-spec lights. IMO the upgrade is worth
the effort if you do any night driving on unlit roads.
