Semi-truck accessories are big business for these overland truckers. Check out the shiny stuff at your local Chrome Shop:

including, interestingly enough, 12V 4x6 rectangular LED headlights

It's probably the one thing for a D that you can walk into a motor factors Stateside and pick up off the shelf. And have a choice.

So many cars had them in the 80s and 90s. Even imports had to be retrofitted with them.

You're all forgetting the beauty that is the Dennis Elite 6x2 refuse truck, which wears the same high power head lamps.

Such wonderful sporting heritage our cars have :shock:
