Just ordered a set of the Hella XL's from a place in PA called Susquehanna(sp) Motor Parts on sale for $95 and the sale lasts until about Xmas. Will report on them after installation. Will try to wire my factory low beams as DRL's and have the Hellas be switchable. Clear stone guards are an extra $24 and probably worth it.
