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? |

They have a pre-fab relay kit here

Should be a HUGE improvement and I will not be blinding oncoming people. So who wants to buy my perfect DOT approved H4s with 55/60 bulbs for $20 plus shipping which were a big upgrade from the standard sealed beams which did not require relays? |

I will definately buy them from you if they also do not require a relay addition
