Have you considered LED?

I just bought the Truck-Lite LED headlights.

They are amazing.

If you buy name brand, they should be very reliable! And the light output is awesome, probably outshines the H4 conversion. And mine were a plug n play operation!

27270C, the non-heated version. Just couldn't justify the heated version at nearly double the cost.

If you drive yours in the snow a lot I would go heated. Otherwise the non heated are a good option.

They look good even when they're off.

Digger did you also get the headlight harness too? Or did you just plug them into the stock harness?
