<DIV></DIV>&gt;I'm very happy with my US-style H4/H4 units. Using two 90W low beams and four 100W high beams give mucho light. The Euro beam pattern may be better but total lumins will be the same with identical bulbs. Be sure you relay them, regardless of which type you decide on.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; I've got the quad H1/H4 setup and it's a big improvement over factory. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; You'd be using the same bulbs so I'd imagine that they'd be just as bright, 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; however the beam pattern would almost certainly be different.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Has anyone done a side by side comparison of the quad H1/H4 setup against 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; the Euro lights? I think we're all in agreement that the US spec sealed 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; beams suck, but I'd prefer to keep the quad light style much more than those 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; crosseyed euros.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; The Euro lights are so much better in both the lighting and looks 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; departments. If I can install them you probably can too. I trimmed the 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; bumper trim and still could not get the lower 3 screws in, they didn't line 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; up for me. So only the top screws are holding the lights on. I never 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; relayed them either, I am not a wiring whiz. They help a lot in the amout 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; of lihght they throw. I had to clean a ground on one of the high beams, no 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; biggie. I have not replaced a bulb yet, but it shold also be a piece of 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; cake. Dunno how much the bulbs cost either. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; Get Euro lights, they are cheaper now too.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Frankly, I've always liked the look of the US lights but they are lacking 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; in 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; the lighting department. From what I can gather the euro lights are much 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; better. Is this true? How hard are they to install? How expensive is 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt; it 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; to replace a broken/burnt out bulb? Thanks!
