    FS: Premium BOSCH H1's - Restored

    ** SOLD **

    I have a pretty good inventory of H1 parts right now and I just picked out all of the best ones to build a set of restored headlamps. These have original raised script Bosch H1 lenses - I think one is NOS or very close, the other I rate as excellent, at least 9/10. The trim rings are rechromed originals that were done to a very high standard by my current plater. The reflectors are of course perfect, freshly redone with the cooper / nickel / vapor deposited process. Every bit in the these lamps is the best one I had on hand.

    Reflector assemblies before mounting:

    Continued in next post... ($1,750.00 for the pair BTW)

    I carefully removed the Bosch labels from the originals before sending them for plating and have re-attached them:

    These are ready to install: new 100w and 55w bulbs; new lens gaskets; new mounting gaskets; new correct mounting screws.

    $1,750.00 plus shipping

    Thanks for looking.

    Cheers,
    John

    Thank you my friend. All my life I've wanted to produce tangible products but I spent my formal working life as a stock analyst, client/server systems integrator (at least that was somewhat tangible), and internet marketing company founder. I'm enjoying working with the lights - it's great working with my hands and it gives me an opportunity to keep learning new things. Now to resist the urge to get into restoring vintage Airstreams <g>.

    Wheels and headlights are Porsche jewelry. Gotta be a car out there that these would be a great finishing touch for.

    and with adjustable dual reflectors, the illumination from these lights is quite incredible.
