Headlight bulbs?

Post by Hillclimb1 »

Anyone know which head light bulbs I can use in my 1964 morris minor? Are they available in places like halfords or should I just order from ESM? Thanks

Hi there. It might be a good idea to up grade to halogens, you can get a pair off ebay for around £30, which is less than the cost of some new sealed beam units. Look for domed Mini ones they are a straight swap and the difference in the light they put out is remarkable :)

second that about the headlight change
well worth it and a lot easier to replace the bulb than the whole light unit
