        My VanLife has consisted of a '76Westy, an '83.5 H2OBxr Westy (1st 1 in NM) & My present '90Westy ~ I had H3s on the 83.5 & Liked

them A Lot ~ On the '90, until recently, I have been using Sylvania Silver Star Ultras in the LowBeams & Sylvania Silver Stars in the Highs

& even with My 72YrOld Eyes had No Dissatisfaction with the Amount of Light or the Pattern they produced (Nice Wide Clean Band across the

road) ~ I did install Relays a few years ago & that Was a Huge improvement ~ A couple of Mo's back there was some discussion on FakeBook

about some $10/Pair LEDs for the LowBeams that caught My attention & I thought, heck for $10 why not give them a try ~ Like them A Lot ~

The Clean Band is gone but it is a Lot more of a Light Everywhere, Broad DayLight kind of view ~ Have so far not had any complaints from on

coming cars ~ I suspect that, for the most part, most everyone must just be getting used to bright headlights coming @ Them ~ 

        These are the 1st set that I got to test

        & when I Liked & a Friend ordered a 2nd Set these are the 1s that showed up & I am running them

        A 3rd Set was ordered & it is the same as the 1st Set ~ They must have been Popular as the price has Gone Up ~

        I really do think though that for those among us that have Old BeatUp HeadLights & Adjusters, that the New ECode Sets that have become

available are a definitely a Smart Buy to Consider ~
