Title: Headlight query
Post by: Papa Smurf on January 07, 2006, 06:39:47 AM
Is the Lucas 700 series a 7" headlight - I guess 7xx would suggest so

Cheers Nic

Hi Nic,

This eBay link seems to indicate that the 700 series Lucas were in fact 7".

This one might help as well:

And this almost proves it conclusively:

Hi guys,

For info, I have just recently purchased some stuff from Classic and Vintage bulbs. They do have new F700 reflectors and halogen globes plus the Lucas retainer ring, adjustment plate, and wiring pigtail to suit FC headlamps but note their new F700 buckets are not the same as FC ones and do not fit (they are smaller and have holes in the wrong place).
