Which model Hella spotlight to suit year?

Post by Gary. »

Does anybody know what model Hella spotlights were available in the years the t25 was manufactured? I'd like to add some and would prefer era specific.

Original fog lights were 211941701, nearest new Hella is probably Comet 550, maybe can still get the above from VW Classic though.

That's great. Thanks. I'll just go hunting for the specific Hella model they used, should be pretty easy to find.

Or if you want something big... hella rallye 2000 lights were awesome in the 80s and 90s.
Still around on eBay as the vintage rally lot still like them.

Have a yellow pair here I've mocked up on my syncro... will try to find a pic

I'm after the slimline ones in yellow as they would fit nice on the bull bar.

Still looking for the Hella part number...

Put some protection on the glass. Otherwise they will crack via stone chips!

Well VW heritage are toss, their website had them in stock, even asked for payment, but their suppliers were out of stock. I'll keep hunting, no rush.

To the OP. You can get yellow tint. I have Yellow Lamin x on my headlights. If you apply it correctly with a hairdryer to can hardly tell the difference it's on there.
