Incidentally, about 38 years ago I ordered driving lights from JC Whitney and they sent me... aircraft landing lights!! Yes they were very bright -- I ran them on three different vehicles over several years and can't recall just what I eventually did with them. Got a couple memories involving their use, though...
DOT?? Beats me!!

That`s pretty good.I wonder what else we have in common(other than a K/20)  .I had those Cibies in my`71 Blazer that was lifted about 7" w/37s.I think I blinded a few people.The landing lights I ran in a car,so at least I could keep those out of the eyes better.
