Nice! It's like night and day, lousy pun intended :)

Not to hijack the thread, but for anyone who can't get ahold of a set of the Euro lights, there are two things you can do that will seriously help nighttime vision.

  • Install a set of Sylvania Silverstars (http://tinyurl.com/5jleb). They run about $20-25 apiece at your local Pep Boys, and make a huge difference over stock. I've run them on every vehicle I've had since the 505 (which is where I first tried them).
  • Upgrade the wiring to the headlights. IIRC, Peugeot used either 16- or 14-gauge wires; going to 10- or 8-gauge should help get better current to them. From what I understand, though, this is incredibly fiddly courtesy of the way stuff is routed in there.

Hope this is useful to someone,
