When you say "Modern" do you mean H4's or the sort that sear through Steel?

eBay has some good options, I went for H4's for the Dart but you need smaller units and also (of course) relays to operate them......

[GJUK]

Are these 7" units, will the type that you can get for mk1 /mk2 escorts/ minis fit. H4's on ebay £25 a pair on the bay of E

The classic mini units will fit single headlight Mopars. For the twin headlight models, units from a 1980's twin headlight BMW are the right size for instance. And for weight conscious, Wipac make 100% plastic units in 7"......

Will,

For the indicators could you not mount a line of LEDs in the first open Horizontal slot in the grill nearest the headlights on either side?

Put them far enough back so they are not easily identifiable from the front, but will give you a single 4"long orange line when indicating. Would look cool I think (looks good in my head)!

Would leave the other lights stock and due to their size not effect cooling!

Should be easy for a man of your talents!

Thanks guys so any 7inch off eBay will fit ?
Just bolt straight in really that Mopar easy ?

I'm all relayed up so ready to go

LEDs in grill of a charger blasphemy !

[Pete]

5 1/2" ish, I think, not 7" as per fitted to a Dart (or anything with single headlights..........

[Blue]

No, single headlight models use 7", twin headlight cars like yours are smaller (41/2"?). Headlights is headlights, find the right diameter and they bolt straight in. Jerry has twin halo headlights in his Fury, would have thought something like that would be up your street?

I think hallos went out with LED washer jets

Think I will just keep it simple and use the lower lights and side markers as indicators.


No bonnet and blower is enough up front

Will have a measure up tomorrow

Thanks all

UK spec Autopals are good as they keep the original curve in the glass Will....some of the other ones can be a bit flat an dont look right. I got a set for my Fury at the NEC for £30 last year....see if I can dig out the company details for you..

You can compare the round and flatter faced ones on this photo of my old car. The flatter ones are the outside H4s with built in sidelights.
