Subject:Re: Hella E-Codes vs. Vision Plus?

Vision Plus is DOT crap with a bit more light spread to the sides - I
used them.  E-code is Euro goodness with a sharp cutoff and uniform
beam.  Cibie, which is what I'm using now, is better than Hella (see
Daniel Stern Lighting).  For high wattage bulbs you want e-codes or
you'll blind oncoming traffic with the scattered DOT low beams.
