Dear Chris,

I purchased the grill from Ken but haven't yet installed it -- I'm having
it painted the same color as the body.

The outer lights will be H4 Cibie's mounted in stock '80-'84 buckets.
Initially I plan on installing 55/60 watt H4 bulbs and keep the stock
wiring. Later I will upgrade to a relay/harness and 55/100 H4's.

The inner lights/brackets I purchased directly from South Africa. In fact,
I have three sets. Two of which I am definitely keeping for my two Vans and
the third I probably will keep for myself "just in case". These inner
high-beam lights are a stock VW-SA part and come with the mounting bracket
and a German Hella 5 1/4" H3 lamp.

The SA lights are shown on my website (listed below).

Cheers,
MJS
