LED headlights
#9

About 10 days ago we left the Oregon Coast for a five day drive down to Wittmann to visit Tom and Darlene, and to work on a few projects.  We were late getting away form the RV park due to a flat tire (inside left rear...why is it always the inside tire).  As a result we ended up driving at night for about 2 hours.....something I rarely, if ever, do.  I was disappointed all over again in how terrible the sealed beam Sylvannia headlights (low and high beam) are.  Upon our arrival in Wittmann I immediately ordered the LED headlights Jon Everton referenced in his 11/22/2020 post from Amazon at a cost of $136 for all four.  They arrived a couple days later, and I quickly installed them.  The results were startling, to say the least.  I waited until about 9 pm that night to turn them on, and could not believe how much better they are.....better perhaps by a factor of 5.  Here are the pictures of the low beams......

   

....and here is the picture with high beams on......

   

....I am now a believer.  These 4" x 6" LED's are a perfect fit, and if you have a Newell Classic with four headlights these will work perfectly, and make night time driving a little more pleasant!  I still do not plan to do much night driving, but at least now I'll know I can see what's in front of me if the need arises.
