non-sealed beam headlights that dont look ricey/euro
I just bought a 1984 Chevy C10 and one of the original low beam headlights burnt out a couple nights ago and I want to upgrade to a set of non sealed beam headlights. I have the dual beam style grille with 4 headlights.
where can i find them, I'm not having any luck, i dont want them to look like a set of ricey headlights that you can pick out from a distance, the more factory they look the better! |

Re: non-sealed beam headlights that dont look ricey/euro
Look for the H4 in Bosch or Hella. You're looking for these but the size for the four headlight grill.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=615495 Look for 165mm or 4x6 H4. 4wheel parts carries them. $49. You'll need to upgrade to relays and 12 g wiring but so worth it! Huge difference. I run Bosch H4s in my '89 (the small ones) and I can burn the paint off the garage on high beam. lol Last edited by Irish1941; 02-07-2014 at 02:31 PM. |

Re: non-sealed beam headlights that dont look ricey/euro
Not to hijack but yep, '89-'91 true e-code export only. 92x150mm. Bought a pile of them yrs ago when GM was dumping them. I only have high beam left now. Low beam just does not exist anymore.
To the OP, look for the e-codes if you can. Far better than the US version H4. Same optics but made with steel vs ABS reflectors.
