I put 7 in. Hellas on my 81 300D 'bout 12 years ago. The first time I
turned
them on at night, I threw so much light out front that I thought I felt
some
thrust (deceleration) to the rear.
I only bought one set of E-code lamps new, Hella 6x8".
The aiming instructions called for setting the low beam cutoff level to slightly
down, with the point at which the low beam started rising to illuminate road
signs aimed straight ahead. I followed those instructions to the best of my
ability, and loved those lights. I never felt the high beams were aimed too high
either. I put a set of Candlepower 55/100w bulbs in them. Woe be onto any fool
in a pickup truck who failed to dim his lights to me. Even a quick beam flash
probably left them seeing spots for the next half hour.
