I love the H1 lights like these, but if my car had come with a nice set, I'd be torn. They are better lights than H4s in function (mostly due to being able to finely aim both beams), but are worth a fair penny to sell off. I could sell them, buy a new set of H4s, and pocket the difference to use for other fun stuff. Since I don't drive much at night these days, I think I'd end up selling the H1s.

The H1's are earlier versions of the halogen lights. The H4's are later versions, I understand. I recently converted from sugar scoops to H4's. I like the look so much better, also because Porsches were designed to have those lights in the first place. And I do like the much better light output with the Euro asymmetrical light pattern.
One question though: Which lights have better light outputs, H1's or H4's?
