Cornishbloke Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hi I need to replace one of the sealed beam units on the Scorpion. Is there a civilian alternative or does anyone know where to get a military one. Later in the year I might modify it to the later, bulb type lights. Are the covers and untis easy to come by?

Cornishbloke Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 are yours the ones with 4 clamps holding the front on ? Don't think so - they are the small ones that fit below the wading screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FourFox Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I have a spare NOS boxed Lucas unit in my stores. Yours for £25 plus postage. It's the same as my Scorpion and the production Fox. I have seen identical headlights on the Spanish built, look alike, military Landrover (Santander?) so there must be a source of the units somewhere. I also hear that they are readily available in the USA. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me if you need any I think I have at least 20 Thanks - I didn't realise that other non CVR vehicles had them. I've contacted four fox and will see where that leads. Many thanks Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diana and Jackie Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 GE4811, available eBay (USA) . The sealed beam units are, if marked fog, maybe slightly lower wattage, but still work OK as long as they are dual beam.
