Only had one headlight on my 70 last night ,so went to buy one today
. Only wanted a 7 inch sealed beam ,just a std Aussie car headlight . Super cheap no ,repo no ,autobarn no , a few others no . Yes from eBay $9.95 ea and around $8 - $13 posting charge 😂 . Hmm will try bursons tomorrow . I'm lucky to drive the car at night a few times a year so not looking to do an upgrade and we know our headlight switches hate stronger lighting . Might stock up with a few if I can buy some .

Hmm - interesting - looks like 7" is a special order from Supercheap these days, Genex is the brand ???, around $23 I think the website said...
As you say, might pay to put some good quality ones aside as spares.

Spend the money and buy the Narva H4 kit
Just make sure that you run the relays to bypass the switch, and you wont look back

Al , no next time ,just wanted to leave it the way it was for now 😂 . Anyway got 2 today from an auto shop and that's the last 2 they had 👍 . Every where else I tried it was a special order . Cost me $20 for the 2 lights . I only drive the car a few times a year at night and always around the city where they have good lighting anyway . LED lights and globes and relays next time . Gee these lights only lasted 8 years 😱

All good Glenn.
Nothing lasts today mate. All made in China nowadays
However, you may not need to run the relays with LED lights as they don't draw much current.
Would be interesting to see.
My mate in the USA runs LED Headlamps on his 65 convertible. Must say that I don't like them
But that's his choice and he's happy, and that's all that matters mate
