Or, you could replace the lenses with Ecode (European spec). These have a very flat cutoff and shine down the road farther in both low and high beam. You still use the same bulbs and reflector housing.

When I put them on my 1998 V70, I had to re-align them as they were too high. And then I put a 2 inch piece of black plastic electrical tape on the driver's side lens to keep the light pattern completely flat.

I loved them until I got a rock through the left lens glass.

Keeping it running is better than buying new
