Hella002395991 7" H4 Type Single High/Low Beam Headlamp

I've been using these headlights on every car and motorcycle I've owned since the early 70s that will accept these lights. Not only are they significantly brighter than sealed beams, the way the lenses distribute the light on the road is masterful. If you shine these lights on a white wall at night you can see the sharply defined pattern of the light. You'll see that the light doesn't go above a certain line so you won't be blinding oncoming drivers as you're putting the bright, white light on the road. You'll also notice that extra light is directed to the shoulders of the road to help you see hazards, signs, driveways, etc. With all those lights I've owned, over all those years, I've never had one burn out or fail in any manner. I'm going to put these in a '51 Nash convertible because I just found that those crafty Germans even make 6-volt bulbs for these H-4 housings (though Amazon does not carry the lower voltage bulbs).Disregard the sticker on the bulb housing that says they are not legal for on-road use. Those go back to the bad old days when all U.S. headlights had to have sealed housings (sealed beams) because someone feared dirt or water could otherwise get inside. American headlight laws changed on that point decades ago so those stickers are no longer relevant and should not be on the housings.Nighttime passengers in my cars with these lights very often comment about how good the headlights are. How often has that happened to you?You won't be sorry--the cost of the lights versus the effect they give makes them a really good value for nighttime driving ease.

Very reasonable price on Amazon. Beam is great. Lights up the roads!

Recently bought a 2007 Ural Gear Up side car motorcycle. The original headlight is a sealed beam. Wanted to go LED so needed a replacement to fit the stock housing. This Hella 7” looks great and is well made. It fit the existing housing perfectly and works great! Came with a nice H4 bulb I’ll keep as a spare. Very pleased.

Excellent....it's a Hella and putting next to a few unknowns I had laying around, I repair motorcycles, the quality difference is obvious.

The light distribution pattern is excellent. The cutoff on the low beam side is sharp, horizontal with a midway 60° upturn towards the right hand side, making it a courteous headlight for on road use.That being said, this headlight does not have a DOT approval stamp and is marked "For off-road use only."If your vehicle is inspected regularly, these won't pass. However, they do meet the requirements for an on-road headlight. The manufacturer just didn't want to pay for them to be approved, which is why they aren't as expensive as some.Also, the bulbs provided aren't the brightest available, but they do provide plenty of light.

It's Ok but the Cibie is MUCH better.

My 2009 Harley Davidson Softail's headlamp developed a fog coating on the interior after only 5000 miles of use. I suspect that this was due to their using a plastic reflector which out-gassed residual chemicals from the plastic. Hella utilizes a glass reflector and a precision focused, glass lens with a broad lower beam with an up swept cutoff to the right for better visibility of road signs.The Hella beam is much brighter and better focused than the HD headlamp. I had used Hella in the past on my automobiles and have always been impressed with their quality.While maybe not as "blingy" as the HD crystal lamp, it looks way better than the fogged lens and excels in performance. The headlamp comes with an 80/100 watt bulb, so ordering an additional one is not necessary. This is not clear in the Amazon part description.

Use the included H4 halogen bulbs or pair with your choice of H4 LED. Much less expensive than the specialty "collector vehicle" marketed options. Actual glass lenses and mirrored metal body. Not as convex of a lens as the original incandescent sealed beam but still keeping the period look with much better visibility. Perfect fit.Amazon's packaging left much to be desired. Factory paperboard box was shipped in an unpadded plastic bag with no "fragile" or "glass" labeling. Box was nearly destroyed upon arrival inside of the bag and the bulb retaining tabs at the rear had been bent from banging around. Lucky the glass lens or the included bulb was not cracked. Was able to bend the tabs back in to their correct position and avoid a return and scrapping the product. Should have been shipped in a cardboard box with padding.
