Classic headlight options

dkl1971 · Jul 15, 2010

I am going to need at least one new headlight for my LSE as the bowl is getting rusty.
So what choices do I have regarding design, light output etc etc

I also have a pair of spotlights in a after market grill (bear something?) which again are a bit rusty. So what do I need for them?
Cheers

For your main headlights I find Cibie replacements very good.

Wipac are are good upgrade without worrying about wiring issues etc.

Get yourself a pair of 55w clear blue bulbs while your there

I got some ring automotive replacements , only £22 including bulbs and straigt swap to fit .

They are so much brighter it really upgrades the whole car at night! best and easiest thing I have done to it!

Ring are cheap an easy and good , just like your ring Si

I do want one of those 4 light grills, whats the proper name for them?

I think mine is a Bearmach grill.
It looks like this.

I can't see any identification on the front of the lights, I'll have a look under the bonnet. Either way they need changing.

Looking closer I have one wipac and one cibie headlight! I forget which is rusty. Both have hi output bulbs apparently.
Are these Ring lights the ones that look a bit like the BMW ones?
