Sealed beam

Post by lee_rob »

one of my sealed beams has finally gone and needs replacing. I bought a set of halogen conversions a while ago from the nec show but when I tried to fit them they didn't seem to fit and were loose in the buckets. Now I am forced to changed them, I have the original buckets, are these different for the conversion? Do I need to buy plastic ones?

No - they should fit right in. Compare a headlamp to the sealed beam unit. Let's see some pictures !

Are the retaining springs attached?
