Greg (and others), Your last message brings us to the question of amps. If you re-wind your generator how much more juice does that give you? Also, some people have discussed switching theirs with a Type 4 Alternator, what power rating does that have? And after any of these things are done, isn't the gauge of the stock wiring going to be too small to handle such increases? How do you go about rewiring or refusing your Type 3? Thanks- Wilson 69'Square "...I am going to use 55W/60W bulbs since the generator is only rated for 30A. I am considering Jim A's suggestion to get it rewound for 35-40A so that I won't be taxing the system when I run my high beams. The difference is the European headlights (at least the Bosch H4 types) use a H4 bulb and are not sealed beam light like American headlights. The way I got mine was to do a search on ebay for 'K?fer Scheinwerfer' which means beetle headlight (correct me if I'm wrong Per). I just had to have patience and diligence and finally got a set for $5.00 and am now just waiting for them to get here.Greg" ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
