H4 paintable fit over H1?

Will the painatble rim that goes over the H4 lights work on a set of H1 lights?

I ask because the chrome on my H1's need cosmetic work and I like the look of rims painted to match

The trim ring covers the screws. You need to remove the trim ring to adjust. One bolt, 2 seconds.

Note: you need to change to the H4 mounting bolt to attach the Trim ring.

911-631-033-00-M260 (7.75 each, 2 needed) and 911-631-132-00-M260 (1.25 each, 2 needed)
available from our host.

Yes, mine too. This is a ring that goes OVER that ring. Same chrome ring with adjustment screw is underneath it.




same car, different lighting situations.
