    356 Bosch H1’s

    I was going through my bone pile earlier today and I found a set of Bosch H1’s for 356’s. They have a city light and the trim rings have four adjustment screws with the 356 mounting flanges on the bottom. I’m always amused when someone selling parts describes them as “rare” but I think these are actually “very rare” as I’ve only seen one other set in my many years around 356’s. Which doesn’t mean anybody wants to use them of course - sometimes there’s a reason why things are rare <g>

    They’re in great condition:

    Note the unique city light connector. I’m thinking of restoring them. Does anyone know anything about them?

    Thanks,
    John

    Do you think that they may have been used on VW’s as well?

    I would guess so. They are a perfect fit. Mine presently have six volt bulbs installed. ......cliff
