Headlight Bulbs:
Sylvania H6024, or upgrade to H6024XV. The upgrade to the Hella type H4 provides a dramatic lighting improvement. Mail order suppliers have these units for about $50 each.

Well, I got the Hella Vision Plus from AB and light output has been changed. I was thinking of doing HID upgrade, which means buying HID bulb, ballast and ignitor to have HID and was wondering if the output will be different since the lens is NOT meant for HID? According to Mfg, it should improve the output.
Light Kalvin I am thinking is 5300k.

So you're not happy with the Vision Plus?
Check with Susquehanna MotorSports for lighting needs. Good prices and very helpful.

It is very useful site with mega info.
I won't say I am not happy with Vision plus but I am more used to having the HID and was going to convert IF conversion is possible.
After replacing to Vision plus, I have a ability to swap out the bulbs (Not like sealed headlight), so I can upgrade if I needed to.
Saw a 5300K Philips HID kit on ebay for $250.00 (Plug N play) and very tempted to buy that.

How did they compare to stock lights? I'm considering the VP (dot legal) and the E code (not so dot legal) so any input would be great.

You should give the guys at Susquehanna a call. They should be able to tell you if it is doable and the might have a kit too.

If I remember correctly, HID needs a special projector lens to emit correct bea pattern to efficiently luminate light output. When you see BMW, Mercedes Xenons, they to have the projector lens HIDs.
If you use HID in regular halogen lens, the light pattern dispurse and not a correct light pattern emits hence effect is worse than having halogen bulb.
The kit I am considering has a latest development bulb and reflector built in to correct the beam pattern when using regular halogen lens. I am going to double check that Vision plus has separate H4 bulb that is replaceable before I buy this H4 HID kit. Or, I might just get nice Hella 550 driving light that replaces the useless foglight on the 95 RR LWB front bottom spoiler.

i know because of the cristal prism {multi reflector}they are technically much better so what do youll think?

[AdrianL]

If I were you, I will spend little more and get the Hella Vision Plus replacement headlight lens and bulb.
I had buddy of mine buy one of these from ebay and surprise surprise, the lens is not as durable as Hella or OEM sealed lens.
I have the Hella Vision Plus and difference is dramatic.

Lenses are usually plastic. Beam pattern is a little different than normal lights. I'd say personal preference. I like Hellas, I just won't pay for them. Find a VW store near you and see what they have by way of EMPI for an H4 Upgrade.
