Halogen headlamps available anywhere for about $8 each make a great
improvment.
I would avoid halogen tail lamp bulbs due to the high heat they emit
which may melt the plastic lens.
All Sprites and Midgets use the standard 7" headlamp, available at
Kmart, Walmart, Target (I just bought them at Target in Bowie) or
anyplace auto parts are sold.
