sucky US spec DOT lights aim 25% light "up at trees", or road signs, as DOT
regs require.   the fluting and light pattern is much better on the e-codes.
the e-codes have a nice cutoff pattern with a flareup towards the shoulder and
send more light where you really need it - on the road.   and these are the
words from daniel stern lighting and susquehannah motorsport.. both auxillary
lighting retailers..
