When I change the lights in my car I am going with the truck light brand. They don't look perfectly traditional but I have seen them in action on Jeeps and they work amazingling well.
I have some 20 year old sealed beams in my car and on DragWeek we just pray we make it to the hotel before it gets too dark lol. If we were in the mountains last year in the dark all my crappy headlights would have shown me is where we were going to crash.

I've been considering Hella. They are DOT approved. I don't like the funky look of most LED's. As much as I like the the ones with the Halo light,I had Hella lights in the past and I really like the way the GLASS is fluted!

My application is a 66 Coronet fwiw. i have a 67 coronet and have thought about using nicer headlights. haven't messed with it yet. looks like our cars use an H5006 headlamp so you could use this kit.. http://www.myhellalights.com/index.php/p...rsion-headlamp/i thought about using a 146mm dual beam lamp and then putting some yellow fog lamps in the inner position. easiest way to do that would be to use relays and use the factory hi/low wires to activate the relay, new wiring from the relays to the lamps.

I like the way the glass is fluted,it puts a line on the top of the light beam,When you pull up behind another car,the line goes straight across the rear of the car in front of you!Also the bulb can be increased from the 75 watt that comes with it to 100 watt

The Euro spec lights i've installed on them do that. I like that light pattern.
