combined sidelight, dipped beam and indicator?
Modern cars have everything inside the headlamps, but is this offered anywhere for kit cars?
A 7 inch lamp with at least a combined dip and sidelight, preferably indicators too!
Cheers

glad to hear they are available, where did you get them? I assume they are H4 bulb fitment?
Unfortunately they are to replace round units in existing bodywork so I'd need to find some equivalent round ones.

yes, sorry I realised as I was posting that I didn't meet the 7 inch criteria! Yes they do take H4 bulbs.
I got them from Hella and I believe they are usually used on some kind of industrial tractor??
Try eddie99 on here to see if there are any round options as he has access to various lighting catalogues.

Eddie is a good shout actually! Ill leave off asking him till Im sure of what I want.
Ideally Id like to dispense with sidelights entirely, run seperate lamps for main beam and just have the dips and indicators in the original position,
preferably in H1 or H7 fitment but I suspect thats a pipedream!

Legally you have to have side lights in addition to headlights. You'd fail MOT without them anyway.

what about getting some of the smaller projector style lights with dip and main in one, and mount them on a 7 inch disc with side lights and
indicators aswell, then mount these in your existing holes, so you have you own custom headlights effectively?

SVC sell 7" (and 5.75" ) lamps with main, dip and sidelight.

Not cheap but very good quality.
Don't know of any with indicator built in
