TA22 headlight size?

[stidnam]

Are the headlights on a TA22 5 3/4" ? I don't have a ruler to go and measure mine and the workshop book doesn't say.

[Turdinator]

Yup 5.75"

you can get the semi sealed beams on ebay....

hella ones....http://cgi.ebay.com.au/HELLA-5-3-4-H...QQcmdZViewItem



they are usually 45-50 each from repco, they improved my light SO MUCH....nice white light....not YELLOW

[Hash_ra23]

Do these fit all 1st gens? oh and do they fit in the inner cups or do you havta have all of them as outer cups?

[fade-e]

to do that conversion wouldnt you need a ballast resistor to use the H series globes?

no........

the solid beam globe is still a H4 plug....all you are doing is changing the housing so that you can repplace globes....not the whole unit....

but if you want to use these as highbeam lights (inner lights) then you will have to use outer cups, so they fit.....

no...you dont need a ballast resisitor, wire it thru a couple of relays if doing the 4 low/4 high beam conversion....

blake

its late and brain not working... so if i just want to use them to replace original globes i dont need to do anything ither than plug them into the light plugs?

hhhhhhmmmmmmmmm actually i think i already have a couple sets

cheers

The other question that arrises is if you convert all 4 and have all 4 low and high is it legal?

[-NiCkeL-]

I'm pretty sure it's illegal..

[merc-blue]

thats what i thought,
so it H4 low beams and aircraft landing lights for highbeams, screw HID kits

[stidnam]

thats what I'm going with. Bought some 150w high beams off ebay Link here. Now just need to chase some some outer cups.

[merc-blue]

thast was sarcasim, you will blind some poor sucker with them

[stidnam]

Shouldn't be any worse than coping a eyeful of a rack of spotties on an oncoming 4wd.
