I believe that to be true, as I experienced with my Bronco back in
'78 that came stock with Halogens.

Perhaps the OtherPoster drives a lot through old culverts
and drainage pipes, where the round light pattern is of
more benefit.

Well, that was me and as a matter of fact the trails I mostly run on are
recessed into the ground with the shoulder up a few feet so it is like
driving in a drainage pipe.

Found out the last one was 3" deep after a rain....

Note that I don't _prefer_ them...I just *have* them. They came with the
Jeep that I had the money to buy at the time. Somebody should make a kit
to convert rectangular to round for people who are *really* insecure
about their YJs. I don't get what the fuss is all about. Most of the
design work on a Wrangler is rounded off rectangles anyway, what's one
more set?

I personally don't really care whether a Jeep's headlights are round or
rectangular. It's like arguing with someone about whether you're a
breast man or a butt man, or do you like big ***** or little pert ones.
There's no right or wrong, it's a matter of preference. However, I
prefer round breasts over rectangular ones. Call me picky!

As long as her other headlights aren't rectangular, everything's great!
