993 Headlamps

Has anyone fit 993 headlamps into SuperBeetle or Ghia fenders? Does anyone know where there are pictures?

[speedy]

according to remmell , it can be an option on his wings(requires larger buckets ), i have not seen a set though
cheers jon

Ive seen them on early beetle fenders and on a Ghia as well

Say what? How about a photo of that?

Hi

Are they a projector style headlight? If they are they usually hang out the back a long way.

The 993 had two headlight options:

1. Standard Halogen
2. HID/Litronic

The Litronic is supposed to be a plug and play upgrade, so even the halogen must have been fairly long housings.

I am going to fit some clear H4 lights. Anyone else fitted them and how is was it? Any pics would help. Thanks

You got me curious now! I'd like to see some pics of those on a beetle.

I have H4's on my Ghia; they look dead stock (fluted lenses) except that they throw the light to the left side of the road instead of the right. I know I've seen pictures in thesamba.com's photogallery of free form reflector (clear) H4 lamps.

Hi

I fitted some Hella H4 semi sealed beams to my daily 1303. I used early Mini headlights, these screwed into the existing holes in the Beetle wing/fender/guard
You could do the same with the clear ones. I then cut the adjusting screws from my stock headlight rim and just bolted it back over the light using the stock screw.

pics of my H4 brasilian 3 chamber clear lights + HID kit, hope it helps

Here you can see the difference between HID and Halogen

Everything was fitted inside the fender headlight bucket.

Xellex - I presume these are LHD ones? I couldn't find ANY in RHD for those of you who may be wanting them in the UK/AUS

[Xellex]

well yes, my car is a LHD, but I don't think the manufacturer of these headlights makes a difference. Everything you can do is adjust them from their screws.
