Headlight options.
Are the Euro style headlights from LMC the only ones I can get with replaceable bulbs?
Are they good quality? If so, which bulb should I get to put in them? They are going in my 73 F100, I have put the upgraded headlight harness on it.
I'm open to suggestions other than LMC's stuff, they were just the first ones I seen.
Thanks.

2x on Hella's 7-inchers.
I have a set of Autoloc headlights with built-in turn signals for my 65 'Stang (when I get around to starting that project cuz it's way more fun working on my Dent!) I'd use the built-in light as daytime running lights if I were to install them on my Dent.

Yes, very much. The lens is much clearer and the reflector is definately more improved over a simple curved glass like most sealed beam style lights.
Plus you have the options of different bulbs, for example something more wamer in the color range versus colder light a Blue SILVERSTAR or equivelent.

What do yall think about these? Says everything is included and they are 13.99 plus shipping.I'm wondering if they are real poor quality or really are legit. I don't want to pay 70.00 bucks from LMC if I can get something else that is just as good.

HD headlight harness LMC #47-3660
LMC also has 47-0281 7" retrofit lens. $35.00, but not sure of the quality, but looks way better than the eBay one posted above.
Mine are Hella HB2 7" conversion lenses. A quick Google search showed them in stock at Amazon.Com for $39.00

I have found some better choices since the ones I found on ebay. I have looked at the Hellas also. Still havent completely made up my mind, I have been looking at Autoloc's stuff also.
Any advantages over the ones that look like they are stock lens, diamond shaped lens, and smooth lens?
