Did a search and nothing recent came up.
Original IPF's Nissan put on in 2006 which I upgraded to HID have been good but the chrome surrounds rust from inside out and one reflector also has water damage.
So it is time to upgrade. Not urgent but want to something sooner rather than later.
HID's reflect every road sign within cooee as light is so white and I don't believe LED's have the distance required and both these are not good on the beach when there is a lot of spray is in the air. Example a couple of years ago, did trip from Waddy Point to barge at Hook Point at night into south easter wind so spray was very bad. All of a sudden the Maheno just appeared in front of me as if out of thin air. Visibility is not good in these conditions with really white light.
The internet has a lot of information but also a lot of misinformation.
What brand and type of lights are you all running these days?
