[s-cars] McCulloch hid replacement bulbs...

[tedebearp at yahoo.com]

I got HIDs through that GB.  I didn't have very high expectations, but I'm happy to say they've worked flawlessly all this time.  Good to know that replacement bulbs are readily available at a good price.  They don't appear to cost much more than 9006 halogen bulbs.
