Any experience with these?  the autopal euro spec lights have the city light which is kinda neat.  but which one has a better light output and pattern?

Buy both and compare if you really wanna know, but you have to use the same watt bulb.......do it and tell me what you thought of the two.

But I'm fine with my Hella H4..... I just need to aim them lower

there are 2 types for hella, a DOT and a e-spec, i personally would get the DOT with out a doubt. &nbsp;Since the euro spec is illegal in the US. &nbsp;The difference is that with DOT you can see brighter light furthur down the road. &nbsp;E-spec you see a more scattared light pattern, but you see more of the sides of your car, it is easier to spot pedestrians etc. &nbsp;so, it's your pick

Hella H4 compared to the stock is.............GREAT ! !

You're the one who wants to know which is better, so you're the pig <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>.

Well I know there is a group buy on 240sx.org for the autopals so I assume thats why your asking . to tell you the truth I asked the guy myself and said they are quite as good as the Hella's but a hella lot cheaper hAHAHAHAHAAHA just had to make that pun.
Seriously the Autopals can be had for $50 with your choice of bulb wattage thats a pretty phat deal. Ok I am about to go into pun mode again so I will shut up.
peaceout

I trust the Hella name more but if the difference is MINIMAL then what the heck. &nbsp;
