Headlights! They aren't the best (Read: knockoffs of an old Hella design) but they're better than the sealed beams. I'm bidding on a set of Cibies to fix that.

The highs aren't the greatest either, but I'm compensating for lackluster glass and meh reflectors with HIDs. They'll probably be upgraded to Hella reflectors, with better bulbs and ballasts, after Christmas.

Highs, yo.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

For bulbs, I'm running Philips XtremeVision H4s in the outers, with selective yellow glass balloons, and the highs are just a cheap $20 eBay 55W HID kit.

Finally, with them off...

Headlamps were the first things I upgraded on my '89 740 and '90 760. I'll be updating to HIDs soon, once my local shop has the reflector and glass shape all figured out, as the fill area is good, but the throw suuuuuuucks.
