 Well, having gone to the Audi dealer and asked about lights for my 200, they
 never asked if I had the Cibie H4/H1's.  There was only one type in the
fiche:
 H4/H3's.  And having gone to the junkyard and pulled the lights off a
wrecked
 '84 or '85 200 and got H4/H3's; I have to think there were only the H4/H3's
made
 for the 200 series.  If there were some special French versions, then maybe
due
 to import/export laws they had to use French (Cibie) parts to avoid taxes.
 (BTW:  There are "Italian only " features, why not French?).
 
 My original question still stands:  Is there an H4/H1 light made for the 200
 (type 44) body style?

I wrench on a CAN 5000CDtq that has cibie headlites in a H4/H1
combination....  Saw it again last week....  Given the choice between H1 an
H3 the h1 would be the ticket....
