I'm looking for better lighting at night. Who has converted their old Sealed Beams for something better?
How much did it cost? Can our alternators keep up with it? Tx Doug |

I did the HID on my 944T, I like it ok, but the 914 that I got with the halogens and H4's is almost as effective and easier to deal with. I have had an intermitent problem with the HIDs where the contacts vibrate and it senses a fault and shuts down one. I have to take it apart and clean them every so often, enev though the connectors are supposed to be water tight.
Bang for the buck H4's |
