Jim, did you ever think about re-silvering the reflectors? I looked
into it, but could not bring myself to invest $500 each to the guy
down in PDX. Looks like mine already had seen a recoat anyway.
Solution I am looking at is to use silver ducting tape on the
reflector and buffing it to a shine. Should handle the heat.

I added a set of $6 (sale) Harbor Freight driving lights to
the bumper of the Frankenheap for that. They're relayed,
and aimed a bit high and outside. Ideal for lighting up the
high edges of the road, and the high aim is ideal for the
up and down swoops near our house. Wonky auxiliary high
beams is what they are. Work great as deerspotters, but
truly evil in fog! Another set of $6 HF fogs hangs under
the bumper for that, and really help out the rather laughable
115 euro light fogs. (OK, a big part of their problem is
that the fog reflectors are nearly completely corroded.)
Both sets of lights are steaming piles of poo, they're now
more glue than not, but they still work fine.
