Thanks for the quick response. I know what you mean about the eroding value of the American dollar.

I take it that with "ecodes" you get more light from your headlights?... Or is it that it's just aimed differently? (I'm not familiar with the term "ecode".)

I know this is a very old thread, we'll see if anyone replies. I just got around to installing my e-codes, after a year. Just using 55w H1s for the moment. I can build a new high voltage harness easily enough, just wondering how the wires inside the units held up long term to the 100w bulbs. No issues? Or did you upgrade? Need to know how much time I have--LOL!!! DS
