    I bought Depo headlights from Amazon for $30 a piece and they are good, better than stock gen 2 lights

    I was interested in the kit from Deep Space Lighting, but they are pricey and for that price I don't really think they will perform as well as intended.

    I was thinking about going to a LED Replacement Bulb that will just Plug N Play, as I believe LED Lighting is the future and HID is passe'.

    I also read a review on Amazon about the Deep Space Kit for a Freightliner Columbia and the purchaser wasn't impressed and stated everything fell apart and he removed the setup and went back to OEM.

    I believe @KB3MMX was selling a used set for a 2nd Gen Volvo, maybe he could give some input.

    A couple years ago I bought my third replacement set of OEM Volvo 1st Gen Headlight Assemblies from TEC of Fontana for about $95 each, and they were in a generic cardboard box, when I opened them up them up, they looked like the OEM ones made by CIBIE, but were Made in China and had a Volvo part number. So far they have been holding up and haven't yellowed yet, and the light pattern seems to be distributed evenly.
