Halogen sealed beam.  Bright Star or Silver Star.  Something like that.  First level.  They're a little more white but not those bright blue/white type.

I'm considering changing my incandescent to halogen.  Well, supposedly incandescent.  I'd like a bit more light.

I guess mine would still be considered incandescent since they're sealed and don't use a replaceable bulb.  I think the difference is in the material the element is made from or the gas used in the bulb.

Mine are not sealed, and do use a replaceable bulb.

Not listed but my LED headlights are amazing and still Dot with a great cutoff to the pattern.

The cutoff on mine is good.  I have projector headlighrs.  60mm and 90mm.

You aren't happy with the projector setup?

The projectors are fine, but perhaps not aimed correctly.  Also, a bit more light would be nice.

LED's on all my cars, including  my Ford Escape. For Fieros, I replaced the sealed beams with housings that let me use whatever bulbs I want.
