Headlight Bulb replacement -- Recomends 200

I was looking at those on the web. Cheapest I saw was $70.

For now, I just ended up getting a "stock" (Wagner) 9004 bulb for $10 from Westminster Auto Parts (don't know who "owns" them now, but the same guys working there have been there for years.

I may regret not spending more, if I hit a deer tho. That would cost way more in damages, but for now just needed not to get stopped for a dead headlight.

Prob reconsider as darkness falls before 5PM and spend some on brighter bulbs. There are a ton of deer around here. Last year I counted 18 bedding down in the wild rhododendron on the hill behind my house...eating everything standing.

Many new houses on 10+ acres...NO HUNTING signs all over. Back in the day hunters would take 5-10 deer a season. Now those 5-10 just breed...and starve in the winter. They've stripped the undergrowth bare. The woods used to be filled with mountain laurel, but that is all eaten, leaving dead leaveless branches. They have radically altered the ecosystem. I haven't seen any tree seedlings in several years.

They even eat the rhododendron, the loss of which is now altering the stream banks...erosion.
But Don't Shoot little Bambi!

(minor Rant LOL)
