I'd go for Osram H4's any day. Unless it waas a day when they were out of stock and I was desperate. Then I'd go for h4 bulbs by Ring. Either way they'd be Xenon.

I think the inners are H3 iirc, don't quote me on that, they could be h1's

you can go right up to 160 watt versions on h3's  :laugh:

make sure the loom can take it, u would be best to check with dizzy.

I have them in mine, but i massively over engineered my loom, due to me blowing the crap out of my original one  :cry:

Indeed the spotlamps are H3 type bulbs, although if you fit an uprated headlight loom and / or fit uprated bulbs, you really shouldn't need to change these. Besides, they can be a real b!tch, especially the one on the drivers side near the rad.

no need.

I must admit, i wouldn't change to a single lamp grill on mine!

So its h4's on the out h3s on the inner!

I made my own loom form 30 amp 2.5mm cable, so it should be able to take a good bit more than standard, if it melts it's easy enough to make another!!!
