One of my headlights burned up last month and I went to the auto parts store. My thinking was to find the cheapest halogen I could, put that in and then spend money on a set of the new super ultra whatever Bosch things that have the removable bulb and make the sun look dim once I could afford them.
Instead, I found a Sylvania silver star ultra halogen light in Oreillys for around $20.00. A base halogen was around $15. I could spare $5.00, so I got one. Amazing difference. It makes the other still normal halogen light look like a dim yellow glow. I changed the other light out last week.
I drove the M1009 a little over 500 miles the last few days. Almost 200 of those were out in the middle of nowhere in west Texas at night. Those lights made the night part better than driving my 2000 Suburban. Especially since we were in an area that deer are always on the road.
Not trying to sell light bulbs to anybody. Just wanted to pass on that for a lot less than I was thinking would have to be spent, I got great lights.
