Shopping around for an inexpensive way to upgrade standard light to H bulb series, I found these and bought 2 sets, about 30$ for one side
Look at

These will be mounted in a BMW light mount since my grill screws and buckets are rusted beyond repair. Also, grille will be remodeled after the Alfetta style (big chrome center)

DON..Here is post #500...yes, received the lights...very NICE for the price..just as described....will be mounted into BMW e30 light mounts and then into Alfa with new front grille (Alfetta style, maybe machined aluminum?)..new relays, too. The whole setup cost about 100$ ebay dollars.
If you do this conversion..try to get the metal BMW housing..it is easier to weld or bolt to the Alfa. Just remember, it does not fit the original plastic Alfa surround.
these lamps have the appropriate rear indents so they fit right into the BMW housing...
Just a matter of time and getting my 220volt outlet in the garage sos I can weld the suckers in place...
