Hi all, can anyone tell me if these conversions are worth doing now that you can buy Xenon type bulbs for standard Lammy headlight holders. Only i knocked up an H4 conversion a few years back and wondered if it was worth fitting. I'll post some pictures and would be grateful if anyone could tell me if what i have will work or if i need to do anything else to it. Cheers Pete

IMHO this solution is lots better than any of the conversion bulbs I've tried.

They work fine you just have to get the focal point set right to get a good beam.I think the bulbs casing needs to protrude around 5mm forward of the original holder.I usually take the headlight off,wire up to a battery,fit the holder then play about with focal settings till it gives a good beam on a wall before finally fitting to scoot.
