Sealed beams are rubbish - they were only kept in production by archaic
US lighting regs. Japanese NA im****ts come over to the UK with them,
and you can spot them easily because they're so dim and yellow compared
to H4 halogens.
A lot of people are fitting the HID H4 conversion kits now, but they're
borderline-legal (the regs really require headlamp washers and dynamic
self-levelling).
