My newly aquired 1990 Eunos has the original Wipac units fitted. One is rusty so im going to replace both.
Just wondering if anyone has fitted Cibie units ? Any Cibie spotlight I ever had was amazing so wondering if wotrh the money, about 100 squid for a pair.

The original units were sealed beams,I’ve replaced mine but not with Cibies,

I've tried many configurations/brands (including HIDs
), currently I have these lamps (which look similar to those Pops linked to) :

Thank you both, they both look good and half the price of Cibies ,
Another question, has anyone replaced the 65 /55 w regular bulbs with the 100/65 type bulbs and found they did not burn out either the dip switch or any wiring . I know its prob not legal and a relay is recommended, juts asking !!!!!!

100w might be a bit much for 28 year old wiring, as said above the osram H4 night breakers are hard to beat
