5KS Euro lites in a tq

[DH5481@aol.com]

I finally broke down and picked up those 5KS lites in the junkyard today.  I
may slap them in even with crappy reflectors to see how much of a difference
they make.  The Bosch PN is 1 301 066 111 and 112.  That is on the yellow
Bosch label on the outside (Black plastic) and on the reflector.  There is
another number below that on the reflector label that may or may not be a
seperate PN.  There is also a Bosch PN molded into the black plastic case.
  I am missing one of the round covers that covers up the wiring/provides
access to the bulbs.  If anyone has a spare, please let me know before I call
around and have heart failure finding out how much Bosch will stab me for
this thing.  Either side fits - I checked to make sure.
  There are 55/60 H4s in them.  These have a large orange side marker light -
not a reflector.  The parking lamp is a small bulb directly underneath the
H4, so wiring changes should be minimal to non existant.
  I trial fitted them - they will bolt in - you must use the 5KS angled
grill.  They are taller, so the chrome strip above and below the lamp on the
tq goes away.  On the angled grill, the chrome stops at the edge of the
grill, so it won't look botched.
  They really look quite good as a replacement - I was concerned about the
esthetics (if not I would have bolted 200W driving lamps to the bumper), so
I'm happy so far...
