Dodge Super-Lite
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.
