No chance mate.

There is shit on ebay i.e 20 quidders but the ones around the 70mark ones will be just as good. People on eBay like working for pennies.

After all, its all made in the same factory!!

Picking mine up this weekend/early next week.

the difference in quality will be the balasts, the more expensive ones will work on modern cars and wont kill the ecu, however since the mk1's dont run any diagnostics on the lights it wont make the slightest bit of difference.

the one thing i can says it the magnets ect do suffer on the build quality so with h4-3's you could have problems with full beem as it might get stuck on full or in dipped.

my current setup uses h4-4's so dont get this issue, and i have h4 and h2 on another setup.
