914World.com _ 914World Garage _ French H-3 Foglights

Posted by: 914Sixer Jun 9 2006, 09:54 PM

I thought I would share with the club a set of NOS French H-1 foglights. Please note that contrary to popular belief the lens is not YELLOW. The reflector is coated yellow. Also the housing has extra clips to put connectors on, not the bare end solder wire on the USA models. Enjoy!

Those rawk!
I think the bulbs are still 55watt H-3s. I have one "rest of the world" unit with the funky bulb in the center of the housing.

I would LOVE to find one more...

I stand corrected. It is a H-3 bulb not H-1. These are 100 watt elements I installed because they came with no bulb.

When installing a 100 watt unit....take care to use either relays or correct gauge wiring.....smoke is a bad thing......30 year old dash switches don't like smoke.....

BTW...fixed your subject title for you.

I have a NOS 914-6 body wiring harness to use. I will not be taking any chances.

Doesn't mean it can handle 100 watt bulbs. Stock HEADLIGHTS are 55w....fogs were what...35w?
