Halogen Headlamps

The halogen headlamps use a projector module for the low beam headlamp and a complex surface reflector for the halogen high beam lamp. The low and high beam bulbs are quartz halogen H7, with a rating of 55W. The bulbs are retained in the headlamp unit with conventional wire retaining clips.

The projector module comprises a reflector, the lens and the halogen bulb. The projector module only operates as a low beam halogen headlamp.

The high beam lamp reflector is divided into separate parabolic segments, with each segment having a different focal length.

The halogen headlamp uses a side lamp bulb which is located in the position used by the cornering/static bending lamp on xenon headlamps. The lens pattern for the side lamp in this position differs from the lens pattern used for the cornering/static bending lamp.

The halogen headlamps do not require adhesive decals to be applied to the clear outer lens to mask the beam cut-off when driving in opposite drive hand markets. A tourist lever mechanism is located on the right hand side of the projector module. This mechanism moves to blank off a portion of the beam spread to enable the vehicle to be driven in opposite drive hand markets without applying blanking decals to the headlamp lens. The beam is changed by removing the access cover at the rear of the lamp assembly and moving a small lever located near the bulb holder, at the side of the projector module. Make sure that the headlamps are off before removing the access cover.
