The arrival of the Super-Lite option for 1969 made Dodge the first domestic carmaker to experiment with headlights more effective than the ancient sealed-beam technology that had been used for decades. Developed in cooperation with Sylvania, the $50 Super-Lite used a single 85-watt halogen bulb mounted in the grille on the driver’s side, making it a pioneering use of a projector beam lighting in a mass-produced model. Meant to function as a mid-beam, the Super-Lite was aimed at providing better illumination than low beams but without blinding oncoming drivers.

My dad had a Monaco with a Super Lite. He kept it when he sold the car, he still has it in a box somewhere...

Too bad manufacturers seemed to have totally forgot about oncoming drivers now.
Driving home after work every evening these days is awful the oncoming lights are blinding.
