[QUOTE=mrein3;4954519]I've been telling you guys for years that all the light you need comes out of a set of $10-$15/each halogen sealed beam headlights from Wal*Mart and the headlight relay upgrade. Heck, just try the relays with what you got before you do anything else. Taking that factory 10.4 volts (stock wiring) and moving it up to 12-14 volts off the battery through a relay makes a world of difference. AND IT IS LEGAL.QUOTE]

As far as I am concerned there is not a better and cheaper way to put plenty of light down the road at night than the sealed beam halogen bulb with the relay.
