  seems most listers have them

>(like i've never bought anything to look cool :<)

Well,
yeah. I live in a highly urban area. The amount of time I can use high beams
is very small. But the times I need High beams are very small also. The
times I need a driving light? Almost never. So why did I get a set? To look
cool?

Well,
yeah. Some of us choose hokie clear or smoked tail lights to express our
coolness, some of us buy a relatively cheap SA grill (which I needed a new
one anyway) to make our vans look better.

And when I go to the Sierras (eat your heart out) for a gold panning trip,
skiing, or a astronomy weekend with the kids, I'll get to see what is going
on (miles ahead).

And you can bet if I lived in Colorado or Montana, I would have the
brightest lights I could buy on the front. Probably what the South Africans
had in mind all along. Keep from hitting the wilderbeast on the savannas.
