60's RSR headlights?

Hey guys,

Has anyone seen these on a later body car? Searched the forums and got nothing. I have not seen headlights like these. guy said they were on a late 60's RSR

Andrew - those headlamps are Bosch Euro spec as fitted to 911/912 swb models (that's where the late '60's reference comes from).

There was no RSR model in the '60's - the 2.8 RSR model was produced in late '72/'73.

I personally love the look of SWB headlights. It's a nice alternative to H4s or super expensive H1s. I modified my headlight buckets by grinding down the mounting tabs. I can still use my oem headlight retainers if I want to switch back someday. But for now, I think they look great on an later bodied car.

I got mine from Enmalig in Huntington Beach, Ca. Not cheap, $350 a pair but they are NOS.

Search Bob Tilton for complete info on these. Also, Early_S_Man recently added some pertinent info and model nos. for these lights. Should be an easy search.
