When I put my Chevelle back on the road in the spring, I’m totally getting such headlights for it and redoing part of the wiring for them. Wayyyy better than sealed beams on 45-year-old wiring.

Which LED headlights were these?

Bought them used, but they look a lot like these:

Looks good.

Only addition I would make...

white running lights in the outer socket in the signals, that fill the whole light for white running lights, and stay lit white on the corner while the signal blinks on and off amber.

I have been waiting for someone to come out with reflex LED headlights that are ti-bar classic style. The LEDs are mounted back-facing in the chrome housing near the lens, and face back into the reflector. there are many of them that are horizontally divided, low beam above high beam... I want to see one that is triple divided, with two low-beam LEDs in the upper two sectors, and the high beam in the lower sector.

Perhaps with a low-intensity fill-in LED in the lower sector on low-beam, so that the light looks fully lit on low-beam, but doesn’t have the intensity until the high beam emitter is turned on. Theoretically all three sectors could have low-intensity emitters for “city lights” function, just bright enough to light the housing and be noticed as a marker/DRL, with the low beam raising the intensity of the upper sectors, and the high beam raising the intensity of the lower sector.

I think those could look really cool on a classic-style car, for modern LED low-wattage electrical draw, and greatly improved light output compared to halogen, without the need to implement HID.

Ok nice, but how do they compare to halogen, performance wise?
