Hi All Following the threads about the lights for the vanagons, and their subsequent poor illumination, which is the best way to fix it? Our low beams SUCK. Our high beams are ok! But, even our high beams don't get flashed by people. Living on the Oregon Coast, the blackness + wetness at night is so dark it sucks the light out of the air! I understand the problems as this? 1. Add a relay for the switch. 2. The glass/lenses are poorly designed. Then I hear that for the $$$ a South African (round head light) setup is a better way to go cuz the lenses are cheaper? $350 for rectangular lenses really makes me squirm. Can someone one enlighten us on what is the *true* way to have proper lighting? Thanks!
