Re: Another Euro Lights Question



There ARE cool replacements for the original lights :

projector beams from the german NEOPLAN bus
and Peugeot rearlights on my site:

$300+ seems like a lot for just headlights. Has anyone experimented with
using Unsealed beems off another make and or brand of car/truck/van/space
ship etc. .?? Lots of cars have square headlights and it wouldn't be that
hard to fabricate some kind of custom mounting bracket. Youd just have to
find a bulb that is the right height.

1st, there are different lights on different "euro"
mk2 models. On base mk2 Sciroccos (Scirocco L), there
are only the two outside "big" lights.

Some of the mid range models came with headlights that
look like U.S. lights, but instead of sealed beam
lights they are H4 and H3 bulbs.

The top line models came with what U.S. listers
usually call "Euro" lights with the larger hi/low
outer lights and smaller inner driving lights (also
H4/H3).

Look at the mk2 Sciroccos on the photo pages at
Scirocco.org or on Dirk's page (you can get to his
from my link below).
