Well, the cadillac was totalled by a driver fleeing the scene of an accident and hydroplaning into me, so the insurance has paid me out, and I just picked up a 73 super beetle.
I was digging around on Amazon for a set of street legal (American market LHD) H4/9003/HB2 style 7" sealed beam upgrade lights. I need to replace the sealed beams anyway, due to passenger side low beam being out.
I was looking at these, but from what I can tell they are E code housings, so I assume they are not for me eh?

So, seeing that my budget here is from about 75~90$, what would I be best off using? I want a glass lens for sure, no lexan or polycarbonate silliness.
Also, I'm looking at a set of lights for off-road use, and like the rally style lights you see on a bunch of the autocross beetles. Any suggestions on those? This would be for the occasional camping trip, and would be run off of a dedicated fused circuit with relays triggered by a separate switch in the dash.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
