The package says "Bilux H4 Super" but the image on the package also 
looks like the typical H4 bulb. I can get you some bulbs of the halogen 
style for the Bilux lights, if you want me to. They cost $4 each at the 
FLAPS. Only downside is that postage is $$$, a standard rate at $26 for 
packages to USA.

And to my knowledge, there arent anything more powerful than 60/55 out 
there. Also see my pictures at 
http://public.fotki.com/volkswagen/headlights/ for comparison pictures 
of the H4 and Bilux bases.

It's a bulb called ba9s, 4 watts. It's the same bulb as used in the 
red/white side markers, and on the front corners on the late type 3s, 
and also inside the HUGE type 1 US-spec front turn signals. I dont know 
the US number for those bulbs.
