Subject:Re: Square Headlight upgrade?

When I looked into it. I found changing over to the round lights with
all the needed parts is just about the same as replacing Just your
square lights with the Hella Hi/Lo rectangular H4 Lights with
integrated European park lamps. Due to there large size the price is
much higher then the round. I've been told once done the square Hella
H4 vrs the round H4 are about the same in brightness. So it's really
a matter of taste.

Has anyone tested this. Maybe David at Fast Forward.
