I see a few suggestions for LED's, but how well do they work out in a 365 day driver when you live somewhere where you get frozen precipitation?

I've seen a number of comments online of how great LED's are, EXCEPT because they generate no heat, they won't stay clear in snow/frozen rain.

These won't fit your carrotvan or 200, but for older style 5 3/4" 4 headlight systems... What do you guys think about these? It says they do not come with instructions, so might take a little ingenuity to get them wired correctly? They might just plug right in too? I can't see the plug end. Price is pretty darn good for 4 LED glass headlights (unless it is chinese wonder$hit).... headlights on ebay

Pit, these fit a Dodge D100, which shows the same as the 70 Duster on Rock auto list. So I believe these would work for you. Not exaclty OEM looking lens, but pretty close and not bad on the price..... https://www.ebay.com/itm/H6024-Head...0?hash=item4b1ae6c282:g:qUQAAOSwo8NcW1pp

Hey thank you Sir. It’s for a couple track only cars so it doesn’t have to look perfect. Heck honestly I only need a low beem to get through some of the dark pits. The led would be less battery drain I’m sure. Thank you very much.
