Reminds me.

I must put that in the censored words filter.

This one may be of interest to other owners wanting halogen std H4 fitment for 400 four too. I'd not seen it before.

Would get you going at reasonable cost.

Thanks for your replies. K2-K6 thanks, this one looks good value. Now for a silly question that I’m sure everyone else will think has an obvious answer. How would I secure the light to the headlight rim ? mine (US import ) has various fittings to hold the light in which aren’t on any of the lights that I’ve seen for sale.

I've just bought a headlight from DS for a similar price factoring for postage. It looks identical the the one in the link, the glass has the name xanadu on it, wires are same colour etc. I haven't fitted it to my rim yet but the lamp measures the same as the original. If the US rim is different then according to DS it wouldn't fit.

K2-K6:
You may have to dismantle and post pictures of your headlight unit bradders so that those with UK fitment can confirm if there's a difference and what it is.

That may help you out.

Or the more complete one  (including rim etc) to fit straight on may offer a better option, although at increased cost.
