I would suggest Ciebe 7" headlight housing. They fit like a stock headlight
and use the same electrical plug. You can put an H-4 bulb in them at stock
wattage 55/65. They have a nice pattern and sharp cut off, that is, they
don't throw light up high when on low beams. You get a nice penetrating
pattern on high beam. I like them on my car.
H-4's also give you the opportunity to up-grade to higher wattage bulbs by
simply changing out the bulb not the entire housing. You can get 55/100
watt bulbs (and several other options) for a really penetrating HI HI beam!
Yes, you would need a relay on the high circuit for that bulb and probably
use a ceramic electrical connector. I have not tried the 100 watt highs on
my car.
