[Supras] Headlight recommendations

[Bob Shapton]

I would go with the Hella conversion (or equivalent that uses H4
bulbs) - 
see:  http://www.autobarn.net/helhigperhal.html

You can search around and find lower prices. For example on ebay:

conversion_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33709QQihZ016QQitemZ2
60187670715QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

also item # 120190070046

The H4s are 60/55 W standard and are available at 100/55 W  Optics are
superior (crisp horizontal cutoff pattern etc) and while the standard
bulbs 
are excellent, the 100W bulbs are real flamethrowers.

Keep a pair of plain old sealed beams for inspection times.
