Assistance with 8 inch lights
Posted: Thu Aug 21, 2014 3:33 am
Have found an adress in UK that has 8 inch lights mainly for motor cycles
[ 62 Clare Rd ,Prestwood Bucks .HP16 0NU ] No idea if near London or out in the sticks as we say
Are ther any members close by that could see if these lights will fit into an original 8 inch shell.
My car is fitted with 7 inch lights with adapter rim and would like to revert to original or something authentic.
Posted is a picture of what is available and think are about 35 pounds.Light comes with pilot light inside.
I have found another place with new chrome plated brass rims to suit the M140 shells tha mainly sells repro hub caps.
Have found some one local here in Oz that has a pair of 8 inch lights in steel shells but not sure if compatible as cannot see sprung loaded clip at bottom so am waiting a reply.
These 8 inch lights although not original may be an alternative but may only suit UK and Australian roads in regards to dipping.
If any UK members live close to adress and have a spare rim to check would reall help as would like to order as think resemble the originals . My car is a very late 49 model. Thanks Ian
