Not to prolong this thread needlessly but... This will of interest to those who have H4 lights on their cars (I have Hellas on my TR6). I found real Xenon H4 bulbs at Wal-Mart last night. These are n

The time has come to replace the headlights on my TR4 (The thought going through the eight-point buck's mind as I bear down on him at 65mph is probably...."yeah right"). I recall a thread a few mont

Those headlights are optional on many newer European cars. They are Xenon gas discharge lights. I haven't heard of any units that might fit our TR's. If you find some please let me know. Shawn -- Ori

The lights mentioned in the other posts do exsist. Try I got quotes for both TR 4 & 6 reasonable prices - about $70 including the bulb. Not at that point in the rebuild yet and short of cash based on

It depends on the bulb you use. The dichroic bulbs are the ones that are irritating and I'm going to get them to fight back. I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore. Oops, sorry, too man

These are not the type of lights fitted to new Lincolns, Benzes and Lexuses (Lexi?). The real lights use an electrical arc through a gas chamber to create light. These are simply halogen bulbs with
