Did you try good E21 units with 90-100W H1 units? Works pretty good as well!

Currently on sale at my not-favorite supplier indeed. Bulbs, some examples below but you can get them in any car parts store, at least here...

http://www.carbulbsdirect.com/product/r ... ight-bulbs

http://www.servicelighting.com/Osram-64 ... Light-Bulb

Please note that these bulbs of course generate more heat. If your planning to spend hours in traffic jams with your headlights on, better not use high wattage bulbs, otherwise you'll probably be ok. Issues I've seen sofar mainly concerned light units with a lot of plastic as used in facelift E30 (especially Hellas) or E36.
