    John...

    Those appear to be H4's with city lights, correct for MY1974 and up. The bulb holders are for bulbs with P43t bases - the early Euro headlamps were originally built to accommodate incandescent bulbs with P45t bases.

    Cheers,
    John

    John,

    Thanks for these details.
    I removed these lights from a euro 66' Porsche 912 and they seem to be original on this car except H4 lenses.
    I have the same on my 68' Porsche Targa SW.
    Cheers,
    John

    Here's a picture of the bulb holder on a SWB Euro headlight. It's for an incandescent bulb with a P45t base as halogen bulbs with P43t bases were not available until 1972:

    And here's a picture of the bulb holder for the P43t base H4 halogen bulb:
