European compliance for US Headlights
« on: September 30, 2019, 17:13:19 »
Dear friends,
Having read Jim Viller’s article about Pagoda lights on Pagoda Notes Volume 11 No.4, I would appreciate your help to “build” my new headlights.
I own a 1970 Pagoda with US specs, and to use in Europe I cannot have orange city lights.
Jim suggests a CWC-7006 7” round conversion headlight, which I assume is only “the package” to fill.
I am looking for the lights to fit in, if possible providing city beam, low beam and high beam.
Once led provides a better light with lower power, that could be a solution.
All comments and suggestions are welcome.
Many thanks
Francisco

PS: I was told Hella 002395071, 7" Round ECE Headlamp with city lamp. 95146 is a good fit to replace the sealed beams with Halogen bulbs, but I wonder if I can go further ahead with a led solution.
