Hi All,

Trying to identify which head lamps can be used in a Mk 3 Volksrod, rumour has it the classic Fiat 500 may work but haven't been able to confirm and there mounting brackets for the lights are part of the Fiat's front panel.

The recess in 4.5 inches with a max overall width of 6. inches.

Any body got any experience on suitable items.

Thanks

True, the ones fitted as Quad lights were not suitable, but many others used the size without issue

5 3/4 is the size favored by Westfields and the like, and they are very easy to obtain with the correct beam pattern
