 david, e-code headlights are e-code headlights weather theyre square or
round. its more of the brand and fluting that makes the difference.   i have some
nice Hella e-code round H4 headlights on my 84 van and theyre awesome
(relaying helps too of course) along w/ the SA grille.    its really just a matter of
personal taste..square or round?   i like the round euro look of the mk1/mk2
GTI's and so i chose to go w/ the round.  if i wanted to keep the square look,
id buy your outer e-code square headlights..
anyway, ANYTHING is an improvement over the DOT headlights.
