Low beams:

Hi beams:

Here in the states cars were required to have round headlights and could have more than 4 lamps on at once ::) The fogs are wired to go off when the high beams are on. I just picked power up from one of the hi beams and hooked it to a 30 amp relay. I also put a 10 amp fuse where wire comes from the battery. It seems to work well. The bulbs are 100 watts each.
Big improvement in visibility 8)
I kind of like it....gives you a rally look, especially with the big bumpers and round headlights...

I'm glad you approve Joe! I may go with Cibie headlights in the future but I had seen some pictures of 116's with rally lights and liked it. It's a big improvement over the stock sealed beams.
I hope it doesn't lead to any charging problems. The 10 amp fuse is working so maybe it won't be too much drain on the battery/alternator. Must be pulling less than 10 amps?
Jon, go for H4 round headlights, they should greatly improve night visibility + their lenses just look cool....
Tks,

Cibies or Hella's Joe? I think Casey has Cibies and he likes them.
Either one should be ok, I personally prefer Hella because of the lens pattern.

No, I had some unknown H4 upgrade for the low beams, but the lighting wasn't that impressive really. The sealed high beams were equally good. I was hoping to get Cibie's as they're supposed to be a bit brighter and a better focus of the light on the road ahead than Hella's, but it's all a moot point now.
I must say, that looks pretty cool! Gives it a tougher look. I dig it.
I'm saying yea!
Not sure why, but I like how the lights have chromed backs so match the car and being round match the headlights. They look the part. It's a shame for Euro headlights these round ones wouldn't suit. They do look rally like but the setup reminds too of classic police highway patrol bikes.
