Received an email that the super bright LED driving lights I'm using are on sale, $162 for a pair. Might have to get me another set.
See them here :

http://24x7diy.com/product_info.php/cPath/23_45/products_id/94They draw about 2.25 amps each (about 25 watts), and come in black or silver. The site is a little confusing because they list both the CREE XML T6, and the CREE XML U2, but both pages say XML U2 in the detailed description. I looked at the data sheet for both LED's, and it looks like the U2's are a little brighter for less current. Also, the color temp of the ones I have (supposed to be the U2s) are very white (not blue).
These things make driving at night a pleasure (until you have to turn them off for oncoming traffic). I have them wired directly to my high beams right now, but still have a side project to revamp a PWM controller to run them on the low beams, and use a relay for highs (when I get some free time, with energy).
They are so bright, the reflections from road signs are almost blinding. When I switch back to low beams, it takes a moment before I can see that my low beam headlights are really working after turning them off. They throw the light pretty far down the road, while still lighting up the shoulders of the road really well too. I'm very happy with them.
They also have some lower output versions on sale too :

Just an F.Y.I. for those that may be interested.
