Today’s Run: 4.77 miles
“It was a dark and stormy night”…not really, but it is a dark and gloomy day. The temperature is 64 but the sky is overcast and we are supposed to get severe weather later on this afternoon. Not the most conducive weather for driving.
My son drives a 1997 (I think it is a 1997) Dodge Intrepid. This car is a full size sedan, rather sporty to look at. A cute car. It has had it’s fair share of repairs but it is an old car and that is to be expected.
Recently, we noticed that the headlights did not have the same illumination, the same “umph” that it had when first purchased. Upon inspection, we discovered that the plastic of the headlights had yellowed with age. Kind of like a headlight cataract.
My husband got online and discovered that you could purchase replacement headlights for this car! Cool Beans! Some sites had them for almost $100.00 a light. Glub! He was diligent in his shopping and found them for $16.00 per light. Much better. So, he went a head and ordered two new headlights for the car.
The headlights arrived around lunch time today via UPS and he is over installing them right now. So, hopefully, the next time my son has to do night time driving or driving on days like today, he will see clearly and easily. A job well done!
