Hella XL's

[Joe Yakubik <75363.2524@compuserve.com>]

Jim Griffin asked about Hella XL's:

They are very good _auxiliary low beams_.  They are not good fogs (too bright,
poor _fog_ beam pattern).  They have a good low beam-ish pattern, and generate
significant light output.  As a reference I could see as far with the XL's as I
could with my stock hi beams.

Drawbacks:  People don't seem to care if they are actually being blinded or not.
The logic is sort of:  "Well, he's got all these lights turned on, so I'll flash
him".  They are DOT legal and come with a DOT exemption letter.  They also are a
little difficult to integrate into the front end (better when they are above the
bumper).
