Default Headlights T-84

Anyone using T-84 headlights? How do you like them? What is the cost and are they worth the price?

I have a set and for the money vs the $1000 HID setup it is worth it. I bought my set for about $150 plus the 55 watt bulbs. Yes I can go higher, but the lighting versus stock is about %100 better!

I had them and they are a step in the right direction i then moved up to the Hid's now being sold by Nate@CorvetteGarage and they are without a doubt awesome, you will need to upgrade to the brass gears whichever setup you choose cause they are heavier than the stock heads and your nylon gears will crap out eventually. (see Rodney Dickman for those)

I have T85s fitted (left dip for England)

I ran with the low watt bulbs for starters which is a minor improvement. The kit comes with a harness which allows you to upgrade to PIAA 135/90s. Those give a major increase in candlepower. Not quite as good as HIDs from what I've seen but way cheaper.
