Well.....not to burst your bubble or anything but in the interest of lowest
cost and best visibility:

IMPARTS (800,325,9043 or www.imparts.com) in St. Louis sells the E-code Hella
H-4's for $79.00/pair.
After some extensive research, it is MHO that the E-code Hellas are superior
in light distribution to the Vision Plus - especially on low-beam.
I know, they're not DOT legal but then again, office pools on the Super Bowl
aren't either.
