(IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) My car is in no way concour material,but I try to keep it in shape. My question is this. What are Bi-Lux lights. My car has Sylvania sealed beam headlights.
I recently aquired an original owners manual for my year 73'. In the headlight descriptions it mentions H4 halogen,Bi-lux, and sealed beam,depending on country. My "original"manual-the one thqat came with the car,also dated 73" is completely different in colour and layout. It is printed in Germany. Is this manual for another country though printed in English and what are Bi=lux? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) Thanks in advance. Cheers,Dion

No one knows the answer to the headlight question or no one cares to reply? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

From a quick google search of "bilux headlights":

""Bilux" is Osram's tradename for two-filament headlamp bulbs, not a description of the type of bulb."

From what I gather, they only specify BiLux, because it was a brand name, but it's the same as your standard sealed beam US headlight.
