I have a 1994 850 Turbo and am looking into getting a pair of Silverstar Headlight bulbs, which do I need? And will I have any problems with them overheating or anything?
Thanks.

if u have thick 6" headlights, then u need
--> HB2/9003

if u have thinner 5" headlights, then u need
--> Hi Beam: HB3 9005 (should be 65 watts)
--> Lo Beam: HB4 9006 (should be 55 watts)

I just put 4 in our '96 855R and I am pleased with the results.

Look around a bit for prices , Wal-Mart was $16 more than Autozone. (I'm sure better prices are out there, but I was in a hurry as I had a bad bulb already)

I distributed the old bulbs around our fleet as spares.

The bulbs are actually lower wattage than is called for on the back of the owner's manual, thus they are actually easier on the wiring.

Now, I gotta get E-codes!

Steve -

"My brick" is the '90 turbo sedan, the wife and our two girls drive the 850s.

I drove the 855R to New Jersey and back (Massachusetts) last weekend. I smile every time I get to drive the R.

We have had very good luck with our 850s, but then again, we are accustomed to supporting bricks. ($$$)
