YUP!
I am using Hella H-4 Halogens with a flat face. Nice. Installed high
brightness PIAA legal wattage "blue" knock-your-eye-out bulbs. Nicer.
Need to watch current drain on over-legal wattage units and install
remote relay to handle new excess current, but legal ratings give much
more light at the same current drain.
I Have the original Lucas, that still work, for show. The "tripod"
lights were not the same year. Flat glass in 1954 on my Jag, and a few
years after Rootes closed for the curved surface, smaller diameter.
Probably OK for H-4 PIAA lights, but the replaceable H-4 Hella's are a
lot nicer.
