I replaced the tungsten sealed-beams with the Hella H4s that take bulbs. The bulbs that came with the lenses aren't too impressive.
What are the best bulbs (and wattage) people run with these lenses using stock wiring and relays? |

I haven't got mine installed yet, but I got them here: http://busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=0301600118
I got the headlight conversion kit and the H4 55/100 watt bulbs for a total of $72.00 including shipping. |

Did you buy the relay kit? You should purchase and install that before you put your brights on -- my understanding is that the stock switch and wiring isn't sized to handle the 100w output. |
