I put in a set of the Hella Euro Halogen (low beams) generic H4 lenses and a set of 55/60W IPF magic bulbs (which i had left over from a Jeep project), and agree that this type of conversion (upgraded headlights) is a MUST for our old cars! I also used a Painless Wiring harness to bypass the original wiring. I had purchased both of these over a year ago- before Greg Gordon had a conversion kit out. Total cost for my set up: ~$250 without the bulbs. So if you are considering upgrading your headlights, I would check out Greg's conversion kit - it's cheaper, probably easier to install, and *I think* DOT legal in the US (which the Hella units are NOT).

Here is a picture of the left side Hella unit and IPF Magic bulb.

cheers!!
