Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 11, 2012 Moderator Posted August 11, 2012 Can anyone tell me if there were different headlights (glass part) fitted to RD400's please.
Moderator drewpy Posted August 12, 2012 Moderator Posted August 12, 2012 why not try a cibie headlamp, they were the accessory to have in the 70's
Moderator mervin Posted August 12, 2012 Moderator Posted August 12, 2012 Yes the usa hadf a sealed beam unit, germany and other parts of europe had something with 2 chrome rings , you can fit wetdream halogen unit as well , the cibies are as rare as hens teeth now they fetch good money on ebay
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 12, 2012 Author Moderator Posted August 12, 2012 Cheers guy's. I was looking at a Yambits halogen which should be a straight swap. I decided that I might struggle to get this to fit the rims I have and they are quite different. I did buy a headlight from a GS450 but it wasn't that good. I ordered a complete, pattern, wetdream headlight unit earlier. That should mean that I can either use the whole unit, use the rims and glass if it fits the headlight holder or just use the glass. It has a 12v 60/55w H4 bulb so I ordered a couple 6v 35/35w H4 bulbs to go with it. I needed one with a pilot light so lets see what turns up.
