Sealed Beam Conversions



Don, over the summer I converted my high and low to H4.  I had a set of
Hellas which I used for the lows/high and picked up a set of NeoLite
pencil beams for the high from classic garage, see link below.  Since I
am running 100/90W I relayed and fused all elements using the existing
wiring to trigger the relay. 
http://classicgarage.com/


I found a reasonably priced source for the relays, relay sockets and
some conductor with in-line fuses.  If you want the name I will dig up
the site.  If you plan on going higher than the stock wattage I would
recommend using relays. 

One more point to clarify my setup, I did use H4 for both the high and
low beams, this way I have the same bulb for all my lights and H4 seem
to be readily available and reasonable priced for the high wattage.  The
two outer lenses are wired high/low.  The two inner lenses have just the
high beam wired.
Rick.

Well one of my headlights went out in my Audi and it looks to be a pain
in
the ass getting to it so while I'm in there I want to replace the sealed
beam with one of those conversions that use H4 bulbs.  A while back I
seen
all kinds of them but now I can't find any to save my soul.
