ppeters914 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 They're freaking standard sealed beams aren't they? Should be able to match 'em with a Sylvania, GE, whatever on the shelf. :confused: Quote Link to comment
Cuts metal like mad Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 they are standard 5 3/4" lights... Quote Link to comment
ImInked Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hella makes a good light too. Non sealed beam Quote Link to comment
ppeters914 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hella makes a good light too. Non sealed beam True, but I was keeping it simple and cheap. Once he's got lights and running, we get harass him about improved lighting with H4's and relay harnesses. :D Quote Link to comment
cbsrt4 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 part numbers should be 5001 and 5006 Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have a pair just sitting at my shop. Off the shelf at any auto parts store, Quote Link to comment
dat521kid Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 i have a pair, you have anything to trade? Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) Yes, every auto parts store can get them. Just standard stuff, some might have to order them but other should have a pair of halogens (H4019, H4000, H5001) NAPA part listing Both Shuck's and RockAuto do NOT list the bulb for Datsun 521, but sell equivalents. They are still available, and not very expensive, say $3 at rockauto Edited December 10, 2008 by ggzilla Quote Link to comment

Madness Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I have covers and I got them on ebay. One thing that you will learn is ebay is your best friend. If you're looking for the tri bar crystal clear headlights or any headlight for your 521 go on there and type in 5 3/4 headlights. You will be overwhelmed with the amount of stuff that comes up.
