Does the car use bulbs or does it use a sealed beam headlamp? I would
think an HK car uses H4 bulbs, and if that is the case find yourself
some Narva Rangepower+50 bulbs, or Osram (NOT Sylvania, though I doubt
they even sell the Sylvania's in OZ) Silverstars (the Narva's are better
than the Osrams, btu only slightly).

My '86 420 seems to have below par headlamps, both on high & low beam.
The
light scatter is uneven & miss-shaped & I would like a brighter light.
It is
a Hong Kong import & the lights may have been downgraded there.
 What is the best spec for the bulbs?
