[Healeys] LED Headlight Conversion advice

[Ron Fine]

I am wondering what the energy savings would be between these LED lights and the standard sealed beam lights I now use?

  I bought the same pair of conversion LED headlights last week for $76.63 on sale with Little British Car Co.  Sounds like the sale is over.  Going to put them on my Bugeye.

    Listers,


    Just got the weekly email from Little British Car Company and they're 

    selling a pair of semi-sealed 7" round headlight with H4 LED bulbs that 

    will work with positive or negative ground for about $90 (P/N 

    171-LEDHL101).  NFI.
