Thanks JFP. I personally didn't feel the wiring/controller retrofit was necessary since self level wasn't important to me, as well as the swivel up help from the low beam to high beam, but others I'm sure do. The lights are good, but not great. So be it. I notice that the newer LED headlights on the Acuras are darned bright too, but they seem to glare on oncoming cars.
