Eurolights - 100Q

[Lawrence C Leung]

Hi All,

I believe the original post was for the H4 only 100 series (type 44
non-turbo) headlamps. I can't imagine them being all that bad on low
beam. My Euro light GTi has 7" round E-code H4s (+ inboard 5.75" H1
driving beams, but I made them switchable so that I could switch to same
size fogs in the spring), with 55/60 H-4s, a similar set-up to the 100
headlamps. Low beams are much more than adequate up to about 60 MPH or
so, the only drawback is that their cut-off is low enough that you can't
read ANY overhead signs w/o high beams. This of-course causes problems,
b/c the highs are so bright ('specially with the H1's on!) that now you
can't read overhead signs either, b/c the reflection is TOO bright.
