H4 lens

NZJimmy · NZJimmy's Garage

Hi all,

apologies for a newbie question but I have a RHD market 1984 Carrera (New Zealand) and managed to get a stone hole in one of my headlights

I think I know the answer but I'm guessing that LHD (European) and RHD markets have different H4 lens's? Strangely my RHS and LHS look very similar (lens pattern etc)-should they? Reason being I'm going to get new ones but local (NZ) seem to be very pricey compared to our host.

Thanks in advance, Jimmy

Yes, RHD lenses are different than LHD lenses. But either are the same on both sides of the car.

Thanks Arne, thought so but good to check these things from those in the know. Merry Xmas to you all. Cheers

Try and search some British sites. They have the RHD H4 assemblies for decent prices, ergo the lenses should be available as well for a decent price.

I have one that came in a set I bought - the previous owner must have been blinding oncoming traffic. I would be happy to send it by post. I won't be able to use it, it is yours for the postage cost if you want. Regular parcel post should not be that much. Send me a PM if interested
