*** Help Needed - RHD Headlights (Dodge Charger 69) ***

I can supply these as used on early Japanese vehicles, not cheap compared to cheapo (hella/bosch/Ring) ones (these ones I have a are £16 a lamp) but tend to last 20+years and have curved glass like the originals. You only have to replace the outer two lamps as the inner lamps are same beam on RH and LH drive.

Hi I don't have ones with sidelamp facility, as these were never supplied as original, I only have what was original to 60s/70s Japanese cars. The lamps are made by Koito and have replaceable bulbs. They fit directly in mopar holders yes.

anything that allows you to replace the bulbs is going to be 10000000 times better than sealed beams

change your indcators to 2 filament bulb holders and wire the dim one in as side lights

£16 is very reasonable the square ones on mine cost $160 for original hella (used on capri hunter torana and VH charger)

Go to your local Hella dealer. Cost me £20-£25 for two headlights, pair of hallogen lamps and two side light fittings.

And don't forget to wire in relays to protect the original switch if you are converting to halogen headlights. It's an easy job and the halogen lights are much brighter than the original sealed beam "gloworms armpits"...

yes but you've ended up with Hellas

Ok if you're on a budget and don't need them to last more than a few years.
