Subject:A Fantastic Find at Canadian Tire!

Hi Volks:

Today at Canadian Tire I bought a complete Robert Bosch, Made in Germany, H4
Headlight conversion, boxed kit, for my 84 Westy.

Specs: Two lamp reflectors/enclosures (178 mm), 2 H4 bulbs, 2 high quality
boots. Instructions.

The price: 89.00 CDN! Aprox $55.00 US!
My cost: $79.00 CDN plus taxes using my $10.00 CT gift certificate.

How did I get said gift certificate?

Joined their auto club for 90 bucks.

Includes: 5 support incidents, (boost, lockouts etc) towing 150 KM (maybe
300 - cannot remember exactly), free $5.00 gas delivery if needed, free
oil/filter change (anybody need that? heh heh) Free map/travel service,
towing service good across NA. Unlimited number of tows with destination
being Canadian Tire. Free flat tire fixes...... 1-800 number to call,
insurance... it's a great deal.

BTW: They also had rectangular H4's- but I didn't look at them closely.

What size do you square-lamp-lovers need?
