You guys with the late-model 240s can sympathize. I want to improve the light cast onto the road while driving at night. I've considered various headlight conversions (Euro, truck, and Kane's), but I don't want to do any of them. The first means I would have to change out the turn signals and thus lenses (amber, from Volvo truck), the second is exorbitantly expensive, and Kane's involves a bit of cutting, scrounging for parts, and other stuff that I have a huge potential to mess up. So, I would like to consider my auxiliary driving light options.

The problem is that there are so many options. Yesterday I spent a little while going through PIAA, Hella, and Bosch sites, and I must say I was overwhelmed. PIAA's site, though having cool little diagrams for all of the types of fog and driving lights, just made me realize that I have no idea what kind of light I could use in conjunction with my headlight's low beams.

Has anyone combined driving lights with the giant plastic USA headlights? Was there a noticeable improvement? Where did you mount them, and how?

I know that I need to go with a well-established brand. ipd has two different types that I've considered, but I heard someone earlier here say that they were a bit expensive. I would readily trust a product from them, but I know that PIAA and the others are just as good. What have you done?
