headlights

Dan,

I come from the world of MIL-STD/MIL-SPEC standards in Navy aircraft aerodynamic and environmental testing. There is a reason that MIL standards were created, specifically mainly uniformity of construction and repeatability in performance.

DOT standardizes and tests products for much the same reasons. Some products meet the standards and some do not. Automotive lighting is for safety, just like brakes, and performance is standardized through regulation. I do not want to be blinded by non-standard or poorly aimed headlights and I sure do not want to blind other drivers by doing so. I have had to, on occasion, actually drop down my sunvisor at night to block the headlights of an oncoming yahoo. There is nothing like losing your night vision on a dark, twisting, country road.

Your work in developing the relay system for upgrading the lighting capability of our old MoPars is much appreciated. As I hate to reinvent the wheel, I will be purchasing from you one of the kits when my 'Cuda gets near that point in the rebuild.
