Best sealed beam conversion enclosures?

I would like to get some opinions from other guys who have replaced their headlights with any of the sealed beam conversion kits. I bought a set from RacingLab.com and was very, very disappointed with how they turned out in terms of vision on the road.

I would like to get another set that will perhaps not blind everyone else on the road and let me see better.

I know that a true HID kit is preferred but I do not have the money to throw at that right now so I'm trying to find what the best option is for the moment until I do have that money for an HID kit.

Thanks
