I know the original US headlights for our cars were the sealed type and not H4's but who made them Hella or Bosch and what did they look like? Are NOS or reproductions currently available today? What would the concours judges consider correct?

What would the concours judges consider correct? Hi Jeff. I was finally able to check the headlights on my survivor '73. They are both general electric. Not sure if anyone might know if these could be original or would have been replaced. The car is very original and I do know the original owner so I can definitely ask if the headlights were ever replaced. Will post a couple of pics for now. ![]() ![]() |
