so... yeah... Halogen or Incandescent?
LED lights just look weird to me, plus I don't poo money... also the blue light strains and ruins your night vision...

thoughts on which is a better light and easier on the electrical system?

You mean headlights? Stockers are halogen, which is a type of incandescent. So with that in mind, what's your question?

Halogen would seem to indicate headlight question, LED and blue seems to indicate dash lights?

Soooo, I dunno......

But if talking dash lighting, LED pulls less amps. The brilliant blue color is an irritant at night more because of the intensity than the color. LEDs can be dimmer with a device called a pwm dimmer.

I have blue LEDs in my dash but have a dimmer installed in the circuit so I just dial them down to a comfortable level.

LOL!
sorry, this thread is about bolt on lights. the stock headlights are bright enough. anyone with a tiny ***-in-the-box commuter car will tell you...

I recently got some KC highlights for $20 and the bulbs are... well.. non existent... they're just 2 posts and a filament, but wow they're bright.
my other spotlights are halogen bulbs.

just wondering the best replacement/ backup options.
