The early sloping headlamps were only made in 6 volts..
All You need is a change to 12 volt bulbs...
Which aren't too easy to find except at VW Shops...
Quartz Halogen 12v 60/55 watt bulbs would be best.....
nice brighjt white light.....
I wouldn't recommend the 100/90 watt bulbs as they get too hot.... can burn/melt wiring etc....

[12 volts - 60watts on High beam / 55 watts on low beam]
[ are standard Bulb wattages....]
