You can usually pick up genuine German made Hella & Bosch driving/fog lamps at big swap meets...
keep an eye on ebay too.
stainless steel body on some of them...
also Narva [originally from EAST Germany] now Austria

never You mind
I have always liked the Bosch and hella fog [amber] and driving lamps..
I only have enough for spares... lol
I don't like the LUCAS [prince of darkness] lights...lol
especially as they have strange bulbs in them...
and they were made in UK... lol
Some of the BIG swap meets I have been to, there have been pairs and singles very cheap, and even restored ones complete with relays... so look
about...
the price some people are NOW asking for these lights $$$$
and the ones with chromed or stainless steel housings are getting harder to find...
Problem these days people are buying everything...
just to sell on at a profit..
cheers
