I have no experience with Cibie, have always installed Hella in
everything since they are the traditional German OEM manufacturer. I
also run 130/90w bulbs in the outer lenses, 100w in the driving lights,
very nice illumination at night. Separate 70A relays (yeah, overkill) on
hi, low, and driving beams. All grounds are direct-connected at the
headlight buckets.
