I am after 2 6 volt headlight bulbs for early style headlights (36hp beetles and buses) I dont mind if they are new or second hand- as long as they work. Does anyone have any or suggest where I can get them. Have tried voksbahn and George at VW Classic with no luck
Cheers
Nicko

Try repco/autopro as they can order in most stuff like that.

Hi Nicko.

Your link matches the bulbs I have. Two pins on the sides. The narrow pin being about 3 mm and the wider being about 4.5 mm; with two oval shaped contact points. Base about 20 mm in diameter. Type is BA20D. $20 for the pair (brand new, tested and working) including postage. PM if interested.
