They were popular here in South Africa during the 80's. Even saw them on 124's.
But the reflector is always brighter or duller than the tail light lenses - which make it look crap.

FWIW, my std Euro 1979 350 SE pumped out 151kw which I think is @ 205HP
The OZ 450's pumped out 165kw (but a whole lot more torque) which is @ 220HP.
So, why not try source some Euro parts?
