    Are these the same lights? At least the pictures are the same, but not the price.

    There had been many types of Marchal Amplilux and this pair is definitly NOS, but not the correct model that fits plug and play into Hella SB 19 housings.

    Yes, you can tell by the shape of the reflectors in addition to the diameter. The ones listed here were made for Citroen or Peugeot I believe. They will fit the Hella sealed beam buckets with some modifications. After giving it some thought for a customer I found the most efficient way was to cut away about half of the inside perimeter ring of the large ring that lamps fit into. If you cut away the mounting tabs on the Marchal lights you can then slip one half of their perimeter under the remaining edge of the seating ring and simply secure the other half. It's actually a pretty quick, easy and tidy solution. Much easier than mounting the 190mm Cibie's into headlight buckets that will fit Porsches (I've started using H1 housings with a highly customized mounting method).

    The challenge is finding the original Hella buckets which are getting hard to find - and expensive when you do.

    Cheers,
