Sport Bulbs  H4  100/90 Watts     Big outer lights
             and H1  100Watts          Smaller inner lights
         + four H1  100Watt            Spots

  If you use an aircon 131 alternator, about 90amps should go straight on, just needs a change of belt and pulley swopped over, and a  nice big battery, that should look after them nicely. On Toad when it was a road car I used these plus 100watt bulbs in all lights, 800watts gives you daylight but needs some rewiring.

  Don't think of just putting 100watt bulbs in on the standard wiring, it buns out the light switch on the steering column every time after about six to eight months it melts, and the relay in the fuse box needs bypassing. You just need to wire the Normal car lights up through the same switch wiring but as though they were auxiliary lights through there own wing mounted relays, and don't leave the lights on main when the car is stationary, they get to hot after a few minutes.  

 Of course it goes without saying you will need to use appropriated size wiring  (I forget what I used)  but I expect I could draw it out again if any one wanted it PM me.  

  just in case it helps any one


      Regards

P.S   Be careful when you go down on to dip with 100/80 watt bulbs, its like turning the lights completely off, if your doing any sort of speed in the country roads, it can be a surprise the first time.
