I know what you're saying, but personally, I'd gladly change headlights
more often in exchange for being able to go more than 40 mph on country
roads safely.  My headlights are *terrible* with the wiring as it is.
Probably has something to do with the fact that my voltmeter up front
drops to 11.5 volts with the headlights on, while the battery voltage in
back stays at 14!  I'm sure my headlights will last forever with this
condition, they just don't do a heck of a lot of good.
