The biggest issue is water penetration. The more areas for water to get into, the more chances you have of cracking either the bulb or lens, or both. If the water is really brackish, you also have to end up cleaning the reflector. Of course, that only applies if you're into off roading your vehicle. I have a slight thought bias bent there. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Thanks! That is a legitimate concer. Anecdotally, this last winter in Big Bear (a ski town), I often took a running start to roll through roads flooded with run-off water covering my headligts. (I worried I might stall the truck.) Either I got very lucky or my Delta Techs are great! Admittedly, the HID's run cooler than regular headlights. After ignition, they only pull around 35 watts.
