Wanted - headlamps
I'm after a pair of headlamps to replace the really cheap and nasty 7" ones I fitted during the build. The Chrome has fallen off, they
rattle and they look like hillbilly pick-up lights.
Ideally I'd like some Black 5 3/4" ones to suit the look of the car, but I'm on a budget so will consider anything that's an
improvement on what I have.
What have you got guys?

Thought about it and if I can't find anything suitable I might have a go, but I'm haning out for some 5 3/4" units for the time
being.

Can still do the Dominator headlamps (105mm dia) in black on the group buy at £45 a pair if that helps
Link to group buy
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

I have some original chrome westfield items approx 7" dia, they are in good nick and come with sealed beam units inc side lights. The lamp power
was never a problem when I had them fitted. £55 posted
I also have some of the dominator type in chrome (replaced with black as part of the bulk buy), at the moment they look a bit grubby especially on the
front around the lens I'm sure they will clean up ok with a bit of duraglit if your interested i'll give them a clean and let you know.

Can I have your old 7" ones? I'll just paint them, and put halogens in them... In fact I will trade you some brand new off road driving
lights (5" , that I don't have the knowledge/patience to convert to regular headlamps. Never mounted, or even put on a car.
Premier Wiring have the ones you want, unless you want really small, and the group buy on the Dominators is a very good price.
