    Headlight chrome trim ring differences

    Is there a difference between a Chrom ring for a hella swb and a H4 headlight.
    Or are they interchangeable?

    One difference is H1's had 4 adjusting screws in the ring and H4's only had 2 ... not sure if the 2 holes in the h1 are same position as the h4 and therefor interchangeable.

    The question was Hella SB 19 SWB US and H4. Both have 2 holes.

    The light guru answered me few hours ago that these both are interchangeable.
    I´ll post pictures when done

    Many thanks.

    @Eric: Do you sell also the longer slotted screws? Bought last time only the short ones.
