Halogen Headlights??? 140-160

Do keep in mind that not all reflectors, lenses or bulbs are created equally. I paid the big bucks for 7" Cibie headlamps from Danial Stern Lighting coupled with 55/100W lamps and a homemade relay harness. I'm amazed by the results. A friend of mine has IPF lamps on his landcruiser and the lighting is not nearly as uniform and the cutoff isn't as sharp. I'm completely sold on Cibie.

After a few months with those I found a deal on a set of Cibie 175 driving lamps. These are set up with 100W bulbs and relays to fire on the highbeams and a switch. Now it's always just like daylight and bugs usually fry before they hit my windshield.
