I have the Hella E Spec lenses and Hella 100/80 H4 bulbs, well worth my $95.

Had them on my 92. Was a great upgrade and the glass lenses are cut to provide a much better light pattern over a stock type of bulb.

The stock wiring will handle 100/80 or 100/90W bulbs with no problems and as long as the headlight motors and gears are in good shape, they will handle the small extra weight.

I have the same and they are the best I have tried. The Sylvania Silverstars are no comparison to the Hellas.

I put a set of Cibies on my dad's '86 several years ago, and they're fantastic. Anything is better than DOT code lights. I'm sure that Hella's are fine, but I can only vouch for the Cibies. That car has the best headlights of any I've driven until I get my E-codes, which should be this week.
