    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    The fogs are only used on backroads, dirt, or such uses. They are never switched on when there is oncoming traffic. I may try and get them up and over the bumper more when I pull the bumper soon to paint the brackets and figure out a better mounting solution that doesn't require me to drill...

    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    Thought I would give a little update... I put in the Hella H4 housings linked, and the Philips bulbs. also put on the amber fogs, mainly for the look, but they are nice for occasional use. Surprisingly, they give off a very crisp white light with just a subtle hint of yellow, as you would...

    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    So, ordered the Hella H4 housings, installed them, aimed them, and they are very nice quality! they have a nice weight to them and they fit perfectly. They work extremely well and IMHO are very much worth the money if you drive an older 7" sealed beam car. I also ordered a pair of these...

    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    Those look exactly like what I want. I'll have to check the angle of my back window to see what will work best, cool. It may be an old bug, but no reason not to put some good lighting and safety considerations into it. This will be my daily driver/commuter car, so it will get from 100~190 miles...

    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    Well, after rolling my 61 beetle twice and walking away I'm happy in a 73. The 61 had lap belts and flimsy tube bumpers, and a ragtop sunroof. VW beetles are not the best car in accidents, sure, but that's another subject entirely. I've seen worse accidents involving modern vehicles... So, back...

    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    Oh- don't worry, the auxiliary lights aren't part of this budget, those are an eventual consideration. That budget is also just for the housings, I have a few pairs of H4 bulbs (even a set of extreme visions New in pack)I can use, I'm just looking at getting a pair of housings for around 90$ or...

    73 super beetle sealed beam upgrade

    Well, the cadillac was totalled by a driver fleeing the scene of an accident and hydroplaning into me, so the insurance has paid me out, and I just picked up a 73 super beetle. I was digging around on Amazon for a set of street legal (American market LHD) H4/9003/HB2 style 7" sealed beam...

    Help with 91 Cadillac Seville STS

    I would LOOOOOOOVE to put H4 bulbs on this thing, and in a couple weeks i can probably grab a pair of those export housings, i was hoping there would be something similar. No-load sure doesnt tell much, so i think making up a relay harness wouldnt be a bad idea at all then, i think i might even...

    Help with 91 Cadillac Seville STS

    Hey all, first post. So, i recently wrecked my daily driver 61 Baja Bug, and a buddy gave me a 91 Cadillac Seville STS, and the low-beam lighting is absolutely terrible. i feel like i can barely see the road. hi-beam works great, and in this model there are four separate 9004 bulbs in...
