I'm going to be replacing my GE sealed headlamps with something German. Was it Bosch or Hella that originally came with our cars? Mines a 73, not sure if they only used one manufacture.

Tod, as with many OEM suppliers, they used both Bosch & Hella, maybe more Hella, and I think that they may have sourced the USA market sealed beams from Sylvania & GE back in the day - but not positive on that. I think that even back then Osram owned Sylvania or had a joint agreement of some sort. I'm pretty sure that most of Euro-Land & S. Amer. & Asia had the replaceable bulb style housings from mostly Hella or some Bosch (maybe some other OEM suppliers too like Osram, etc.) with non-halogen type-4 bulbs standard & H4 halogen bulbs as an upgrade option. Try PM'ing the incomparable Pat G. on this, then post the answer here for the ref. of all. |
