Before I did the SACC HID conversion, I was using LED bulbs by Vintage Car LEDs. The fit was perfect, light was bright (5,000K on my light meter) and power draw was minimal.

For some reason this seems a lot harder than I would think it should
be. I
am cleaning and putting together my headlight assembly and the
original
Carello bulbs are rusty on the inside. To replace them I picked up
Sylvania
H6024 sealed bulbs that have three pins on the back but they are
.32"
wide
not the .25" like the original female wire connectors.
1. Is there a direct replacement for the original with the two
separate detachable bulbs?
2. Would the 7" Hella Vision Plus Conversion Headlights
002395301
with
a single detachable H4 bulb work? I cannot find any reference for the
pin
size on these or any bulbs.
I must be missing something easy..
Thanks,
John
