Calle, I have played with the light tunnel. Kinda fun. But it's hard to tell what the light pattern from the side is like. In other words, to look at the van from the side and see how much light is thrown above the horizontal. I would like to add some driving lights, but since I do about 90% of my driving with the low beams on, I need something with a sharp cutoff to run with low beams. I recall once seeing something from Bosch or Hella that showed the pattern like this, but can't find anything relating to that aspect anymore! I really think a set of the Rallye 1000 HIDs would be "hella" cool on my van.
