H4 headlights, older fenders

My '71 Super had a Hella H4 headlight set-up installed at some point in its GL conversion. Although I have been looking at Supers and non-bugs for my next project, a standard Beetle has caught my eye.

I have been always drawn to the bullet turn signals and early headlights. Doing that to a Super didn't seem right in my visualization, but adding early fenders on a newer standard feels like having the best of both worlds in my mind's eye.

(I do know bumper and/or fender modifications will be in order.)

Can a 12v H4 system be applied to an early fender?

I want to keep the parking lights. I'm open to different lenses.

In my search on this site, I have seen some impressive HID set-ups. I'm not sure I need to go through that much fabrication as nice as many of units are. The H4's on my Super were plenty, and so much better than stock sealed beams.
