If anybody doubts the need to do this headlight upgrade don't it is well worth your while. The kit I purchased from Bus Depot was very easy to comprehend and instructions very good. I can see again at night, just like a regular vehicle. I want to upgrade to brighter headlights now :) Thanks everyone for your help.

Wow! I actually have headlights. Headlights like an actual modern motor vehicle. High beams, low beams, both are nice and bright. Whoever said this was a great upgrade was absolutely right. It's kind of a pain in the ass poking around up behind the fuse panel. But, in retrospect, it wasn't so bad. Add me to the list of people who found this the best $99 and a few hours I've spent in while. A side benefit is that I'm now on slightly better terms with my fuse panel. My old lights were so dim, it was like a candle in the window. I sometimes had a hard time being sure they were even turned on.
