[Tigers] Headlights

[MWood24020 at aol.com]

I'm needing to order new headlights for my car. I've noticed many are  
running Lucas PL700 tripod type non-sealed beams, these days. How is the quality 
 on the reproductions readily available? Is buying used originals a better 
idea?  "Back in the day" would the PL700 or P700 have been more commonly 
seen on the  Tiger?
 
Other options? I'm thinking a more modern Hella (or equivalent) halogen  
might function better?
 
TIA
Mike
