Very difficult to find nowadays. The factory supposedly burnt down years ago. Allegedly shortly after someone managed to produce a dual filament quartz iodine bulb.

Bugger, but thanks for the info :) just out of curiosity could a 7" headlight fit in a mini off a escort etc?

They sometimes come up on ebay.fr at big money but I suppose they'll dip the wrong way for UK.

They were not as good as the current Cibie headlights with a single halogen bulb.
