914 headlights are the same 7" size as Jeeps. Truck-lite led's are expensive but awesome. I put them in my 914 a couple years ago and couldn't believe the difference on my rural roads. They have the proper cut off so you don't blind oncoming traffic but they turn night into day. They run cool and don't tax the 914 electric system or wires as much as stock headlights. Ad Spoke Werks brake lights for a great combo.
