LED's for Tiger I Headlamps Question

Post by daviddunlop »

Has anyone worked with the Schumo cast metal Tiger I Bosch Headlamps? They are set up to install LEDs in them, but I have no idea what size lamps are best used or relevant voltage limitations.

Most local electronics shops stock lots of options and it's easy to rule out the obviously too large and wrong colours etc, but that just leaves the nitty-gritty, where things are much less easy to sort out.

Any help, comments, would be appreciated.

Best regards,

David
