I don't know, but I know a man who will ...

Roger Galvin, our UK membership secretary, maintains a 200QT as his daily 
runabout.  He followed me home (at least, he tried to - I was kind and slowed 
down a little) from a recent area meeting and I'm sure his lights are as good 
as mine - clean and bright but not dazzling.  Externally, they look pretty 
similar.
 
The Cibie/Hella timeline is the other way round - the _early_ four-headlight ur-
quattros in the UK used Hella lights.  The "sloping grill" cosmetic changes 
were accompanied (according to my parts fiche) by a change to Cibie.
 
I'm thinking of changing my lights.  If this Pikes Peak silliness actually 
_happens_, I'll need LHD lenses.  I thought of buying replacement Cibies 
complete with lenses and the power adjustment feature.  The lenses are 
compatible with my existing ones - back in the UK, I can just swap the lenses 
and keep the power adjustment.  The loom already has the connectors behind the 
lights and dashboard.
