"strictly for competition or >off-road use only" is how the adverts in Porsche magazines read.

They are made by GE and they are 150W and something like 380,000 candle power each. So far there isn't a stretch of road long enough that I can't light. (2x 150W AC lights, 2x 130W H3s, 2x 80/100W H4s). Low beams are just 2x 80W and no one brights me because of the excellent pattern from the H4s. The highest I have seen is 110/150W H4s these are also made by GE and are something like C$25 ea. I can get some for you if you like. -- David Marshall, Quesnel BC, david@volkswagen.org -- -- 78 1.8L VW Rabbit, 80 2.0L VW Caddy, 87 Audi 5KQ -- -- 85 1.8L VW Cabrio, 88 1.6L VW Syncro Double Cab -- -- Volkswagen Homepage http://www.volkswagen.org -- -- USE DAVID@VOLKSWAGEN.ORG WHEN SENDIGN EMAIL --
