Doug,
I've made the switch back and I'm satisfied with the light output. My
stock headlights were so frosted inside they looked more like shower glass
doors than headlights, so I got a set of older lights and grill for $300
from German Auto Salvage in Berkeley. Before installing them I ground off
2 of "keys" which will allow me to run 9007 lights (which I'll use with
relays) for a little more intensity.
