Bosch H4 conversion for '87 - will it fit/work?

I don't see the Bosch H4 conversion recommended for '87-up. Why? Does the existing bulb sockets/harness have to be changed?

Movin,

An adapter pigtail is available to convert from triple 0.25" Fastons to the triple 0.187" Faston connector in your headlamp buckets.

I put H4s and painted rings on my 964, what a difference. H5s are absolute junk in comparison.

Pelican has the adapters. You have to cut off your old plugs and insert the wire into the new ones using the spring loaded connectors on them. Just takes a few minutes.

and I recommend a relay kit and up the bulb wattage. Daniel stern and Marcus both have relays and easy to follow instructions.
