When I picked up my '88 745t in January a couple of the sealed beam assemblies needed replacement. The foil reflector had burned off on a hi and low beam.

I went the cheap route and picked up 4 new Sylvania sealed beams at Wal Mart for around $6 each. For less than $30 I had better overall lighting than that of my 850. Three month later, one of the highs has a lot of condensation on the the lens (not sealed?) and parts of the reflective coating on the two lows has vaporized.

Can anyone reccommend good replacements? IPD sells Cibie but at $60+ each they're beyond my budget.
