halogen headlights

yeah they look good and i like the performance and the low voltage draw of leds but i just like the old school look of halogen bulbs better
Me too. I prefer the more period appropriate look of the sealed beam and even H4 lamps and have no interest in spending over $300 for something I don't really care for. Even in that price range, the LED replacement lamps have patterns within the lit areas that I find annoying, even distracting. Very much a personal decision there.
Trucklite's first generation of LED headlights didn't perfrom too well. They definately stepped up their game with the version introduced in 2012. But they (and JWSpeaker) seem to be the exception, not the rule.
