Headlamps

Rare original 7.7-inch headlamps, correct for Bentley R-type and Mark VI. These are in good original condition. One is nicer than the other but both are suitable for a driver or to restore for a show car. These lamps are hard to find. We bought these from an older gentleman in England. Bulbs are available from us; we will include a pair of LHD or RHD bulbs, as the buyer prefers.

This is a pair of refurbished original headlamp buckets or bowls for a Jaguar XK140, XK150, Mark VIII or Mark IX. They are in used condition, clean and complete with excellent chrome retaining rims and new wiring pigtails, as shown in the pictures. They have been blasted to bare metal, repainted and fitted with new adjusters as needed. They are in excellent condition, as the pictures show. These bowls are unusual, larger than the standard Lucas 7-inch headlamp buckets used in most British...

This is a very rare pair of new old stock inner headlamp rims for Jaguar XK140, XK150, Mark VIII and Mark IX (Mk. VIII and Mk. IX). They were stored for decades. These rims are close to perfect condition, with one or two very tiny flaws in the chrome. They are the original heavy spun brass, beautifully chrome plated with the old bluish Rhodesian chromium that the British motor industry used in the fifties and sixties.The price is more than a set of reproduction rims, but these are truly...

Most older British cars did not come equipped with headlamp relays. The advantage of a relay is that much more current gets to the lamps, meaning much brighter lighting, as well as a greatly reduced current draw through the lighting switch, so the switch will last a lot longer. We strongly recommend this kit for any British car built before about 1980. It comes complete with two relays, inline fuse, correct color code wires, and instructions for installation.Be safe and be seen! ...

This a beautifully-made reproduction headlamp rim for an Austin-Healey 100-6 or 3000 and Volvo P1800. It is made of chrome-plated brass, as original, and polished nicely. The details are all correct, including the rivet at the top of the rim and the drain hole at the bottom.These rims are sold individually.

We sell a lot of headlights for the classic British cars we cater for. Many of those are particularly classy, distinctive and unusual. But when our customers ask us for the best lights they can get for their classic, the answer is an unequivocal "Hella H4s." We run these in our own cars and we feel they are simply the best, very bright with a nice, sharp cutoff on low beam. They have flat glass, which is pretty cool, but their best feature, in our opinion, is how much illumination they...

Rare original 7.7-inch headlamps, correct for Jaguar XK120, Mark VII, Bristol, Aston Martin DB2, Armstrong-Siddely and other fine classic British cars. These have been professionally restored with resilvered reflector, new seals and refurbished chrome. They are in as-new condition. These are really stunning lamps! Bulbs are available from us; we will include a pair of LHD or RHD bulbs, as the buyer prefers. Please contact us for details.

This is a rare, 1958-only, split style rim used on Triumph TR3s, as well as Vauxhalls and Austins and other British cars of the period which we are less familiar with. It is in mint, new old stock condition, in its original packaging. The Lucas part number is 552913. We have two in stock. We also have a pair of decent used rims like this one, priced at $55 each. We also have several pairs of new reproduction and NOS headlamp rims for TR3s of other years. Please email us if you don't see...

This is a very nice refurbished original 2-adjuster headlamp/headlight bucket/bowl assembly, complete with bulbholder, inner chrome retaining rim and adjusters and a new wiring pigtail. It's a Lucas F700 MK X for 7-inch headlamps. It is correct for just about every British car made with twin headlamps from about 1959 until 1985 or so, including Sprite, Midget, MGA, MGB, Austin-Healey, Jaguar, Land Rover, Daimler, Triumph TR and Spitfire, Rover, Hillman, Sunbeam, Mini, Austin, Morris, Morgan,...

This is our last 7-inch right hand drive (RHD) Lucas sealed beam headlamp/headlight.  It has a light socket in the back for an extra light. These were fitted to most British cars of the 1960s through early 1980s with twin 7-inch round headlamps. This is set up for right-hand-drive cars, that is, it dips to the left on the low beam. Technically, this is not legal for driving on the right hand side of the road, but the odds of blinding an oncoming motorist with a tungsten lamp like...

This is a restored original Lucas 7-inch F700 Motorcycle Headlamp, with a resilvered reflector. The lens is marked "MOTORCYCLE" at the top right and MADE IN ENGLAND at the bottom. There is a pilot bulb port in the reflector which doesn't show in the pictures. It uses a standard British PreFocus bulb. We have those in various wattages and will gladly include a new one with purchase of this lamp. These are very rare, especially in this condition. We do have other Lucas headlamps with pilot...

This is the device that holds a British Prefocus (BPF) headlamp bulb in place. It is used with original PF770, P700 and PL700 and Le Mans headlamps.This is a Lucas NOS bulb adapter. Please see our separate listing for new Lucas-style bulb adapters
