Because of the high output (and, generally, the lack of E-code light patterns) the sale of Vision Plus is restricted to Europe. They cost $40/pr including shipping at www.autolamps-online.com. Takes about a week for them to arrive.
Without an upgrade to E-code lenses, available separately, or a useful hybrid, a high percentage of the extra light ouput will be wasted as a diffuse glow which will light the branches and sky overhead and bother oncoming drivers.
Vision Plus (50% higher output) and E-codes are what I'm running now, and that's probably the best anyone can do without going to HID. Best US halogens I've used to date are Sylvania XV with 20% better output, but they make almost no difference in my 92 940 with DOT headlights (they were great in my 94 945T which had a ECE-DOT hybrid lens). For the 92, I added Hella Micro DE foglights which help out tremendously.
I saw 9007's in Autozone yesterday for $20ea and claiming whiter light. They didn't appear filetered, but the plastic base makes me suspicious of higher output - more output usually means more heat.
