You're on to a good thing here, FJ. Installed them today on my 72 GT, and just got home from a 'dark road' roll. HUGE improvement in visibility. Made me think I was in my wife's newer Audi!

That being said, they remind me of just that... a newer car. Absolutely love the visibility improvement, but it will take me some time to decide if I can live with the brighter white hue, or if I want to stick to the classic 'yellow' hue of the Holley Retrobrights. Both designs light up the night wonderfully, but is that huge price difference worth the retro color? I dunno yet.

Luv First World problems. Heh.

Thanks for the suggestion though for sure. For those of you who don't mind the newer bright white look, I highly recommend these! All in (4 bulbs) for less than the price of one Holley Retrobright. Hard to argue.
