I can personally agree with this, I replaced my bulbs on the first weekend of having the car with BL's and noticed a little difference on low, but more of a difference on highs.  I would still not say that they are good, but they are better than worse... =)

Laugh no kidding I was there in June of 1997... 2 years later no sign, due to the fact that the thing finally did explode... I was there 2 days after one erruption dropped 2 feet of ash, and left 3 days before it spit rocks the size of my head... if you ask me I should not have been there at all.  Had a heck of a time renting a car with all the scientists on the island.  Glad to hear someone else had to visit that silly island in the middle of nowwhere with an active volcano...
