Now on my 3rd different set of headlights since purchasing my '75 914/3.2 last December. When I first got the car, the low beams were dim but once I turned on my fog lights too, the combo provided plenty of light. High beams were fine on their own.

When the front GT flares went on, the original front bumper and fog lights came off. I put on a pair of used H4 headlights that had come with the car when I purchaed it. But they performed as the other lights did -- dim low beams, excellent high beams.

In May, I "upgraded" to new lights from Performance Products. The low beams were better than before, throw an almost adequate amount of light, but they look dim and yellowish. But excellent high beams.

I don't need headlights to land a 747 by like my wife's Prius, why can't my lights be as bright as the H4's I'm running on my '69 911E? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
