I got a set of LEDs based on a mention here that I can't find now. They came in a box instead of the blisterpack, with no brand name; the part number is 2HL-H4W-1800LM. They were $55.

If I had seen the pic posted beforehand I might not have gotten them, because the hi/lo cutoff is as shown. The headlights are not high enough off the road to be strictly legal (21"). I cranked them down a few degrees so the hot spot is about 10-20' ahead of the car. The high beam does add light higher up. I saved the halogens, so if one of the fans goes out I'll go back to those.

There was a link to taillight bulbs here I can't find (1165, 1167(?)). I think that next I would do the backup lights, one's out already anyway.
