I think all you want to be multimillionaires should be looking at the more
obvious problem, Scirocco euro light sets were the last time I looked, VERY,
VERY, steep particularly for the first generation cars but also for the
second (which I take is what we are talking about here), like easily over
$400 (but that is with grille etc, still I bet damn near that for the units
alone,) probably much more unless they have miraculously come down.  Best
damn conversion, like Uncle Joel has been telling for years, good ole early
grille with two damn big 7" round H4s with high wattage bulbs wired directly
to the battery using a relay to turn em on.  There is something about those
old 7" reflectors when they are mounted in the position they are in a van or
bus, you simply get exceptional light, particularly on high beams.  The only
clear benefit to a 4 bulb system is you could wire for all 4 on during high
beam operation.  Not worth the money IMHO, the front stuff should cost under
$100 at a yard, Hella or Cibie lights under $100 the set with 80/100W bulbs.
Or you could dump a lot of money into what a 7-12 year old car.
