Sealed beam Hella replacement Number wanted

Post by Ren »

Hi All, I need to replace my sealed beam headlights.

I have been told they dont make Hella H4 sealed beam any more.

So I need to know a replacement part wanted.

I have been told 1L6 002 395 261 is a new unit that replaces whole beam is this right?

Yes that is the correct number. I have a pic of one + the box which I took whilst looking at the local distributors Andrew Page.
If you want I'll send pics - let me have your email.
In the end I chose Cibie versions because I read somewhere they were the best of the sealed beam replacements.

We sell a beam unit at KK that allows the use of a 6 volt (or 12 volt) H4 halogen bulb and also has provision for a 'regular' side light.

Hi Julian, how much do KK charge for 12v replacement headlights? Also can you remind Richie that my Plexiglass has no logos. Also next time you see my car have a look at the lid.

Take a look at www.autoelectricsupplies.co.uk. I have their 'halogen conversion' in my BT5 and they perform excellently. Available with or without sidelight and take a conventional bulb. W
