Re: those of you running eurolights on your '86-'91 typ44 turbos

Hello Jordan!

        If I were you, I would hold off on those H3's.  I'm more than happy
running just standard  55/60 with my lights.  I bet you will appreciate the
better "aiming" and lighted side of the road on the std. low 55 watts.  With
the wiring harness you have more volts coming to the lights than if you were
to use the std. wiring.  Before spending that extra money that the H3's will
be, try them out first.

'87 5K with 259K  Both cars with std. wattage 55/60 Euro lights.  Nice
improvement!
'89 1C with 135K
