So you are getting the early style 500E Hella Euro lights from NIKO. I have seen him selling stuff on ebay, but I have never tried him.

Currently, I am working on a group buy for 500E euro lights through puma. They currently have two sets in stock and a few more on the way. I have to get together five sets of lights.

Also on December 23rd, I have a set of Hella 500E euro lights coming in from Berlin, they should be here by the first week of the new year. If you still haven't gotten yours, then let me know I can help you out.

I hope you plan on doing the vacuum adjust with the Euro lights because that would make it really easy to (self-(yourself)-level them).

So I read through your entire thread. Can you explain this H4 conversion? Do you Take real xenon bulbs, balasts, etc, and you put an adapter into the H4 reflector to accomplish this right?

I think I would put xenons in the driving light as well, and Hella makes a really nice small HID xenon auxiliary light. They are almost 600 bucks though =).

If you need any help on getting euro parts let me know if Niko can't delivery.

Regards,
