    I don’t think I’ve seen those since before my teenagers were born.

    A few weeks ago I showed my younger kid how to replace headlights on his old car

    The problem is you can find led replacements that fit the same base “for offroad use”

    When to be legal, to not cause glare problems, someone would need to re-engineer the assembly and people would need to be willing to spend that kind of money

      Yeah, it’s that kind that produce disastrous results. Returning to sealed-beam lamps would solve that issue and make replacement much easier as well, but that would remove a profit opportunity for manufacturers, so it won’t happen voluntarily.
