To answer a few questions that were asked.
1) Yes I did have the headlights on, i got out and verified.
2) I just bought the van, so its quite possible that they're out of adjustment.
3) They are sealed beam and I have no idea on age. Perhaps new sealed beam bulbs will improve it, but I dont want to put the money into sealed beams if there is a better solution.
4) I say they seemed miserable as the didn't give much light at all. They were worse than any car I've driven in recent history. The high beams were better but I wasn't in a situation i could use them. I'm used to my Chevy 2500 which are much better, and the factory fog lights on that improve visibility for all types of driving (though they may not be properly adjusted).
