Hella Rallye 2000 are a good size for the240 grille size
they are not too big and well made

I fitted a set of round ones behind the grille, pendant-style from the bonnet landing panel on two of my 240s. They were just generic round units, nothing expensive or fancy.

Originally they were wired to a separate switch so I could use them instead of flashing main-beams - the 240's have a latching relay for dip/main - but ended up rewiring them to only come on with main beam.

I did this also. I think these were Hella Rallye 2000 also.

LED headlights would not be legal on a 1989 motorcar:
