new headlights

FWIW, I still see non halogen sealed beams on the shelf at the parts store. They are typically cheap around $3 or $4 each.

My 99 Dakota does not have very good head lights. I have tried the "Cool Blue", zenon, plasma bulbs in standard and higher wattage ratings than stock and did not see anywhere near the improvement I did when I tried the Sylvania Sliver Stars http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProducts/AutomotiveLighting/HighPerformance/Silverstar/ProductLine/

They have them in the 7" round sealed beam size.

You get a little bit of the blue tinge around the edges like the more darkly colored ones but not nearly as much but more importantly they are the best I have tried to date. My son has PIAA bulbs in his GMC pickup and they seem to work great but I don't know if thats because of a beter designed assmebly or not. His truck uses a different style bulb that the Dakota so I can't try them abd haven't wanted to spend the $80 for a set.
