Buying replacement headlights...

This has probably already been posted, but the search is giving me a "proxy error" (whatever that means)..
I'm looking at some white HID style lights for my 84 GSL-SE and it says they will fit all H6024 (7" Diameter,4" Depth) Round Type Sealed Beam Headlights..I've never had to buy a headlight for my 7 so I really don't know what size they are.. These are online only so I can't just check them out in person.

7" will fit. If you are really serious about some decent photon output for night driving, check out the Cibies sold on the link below. I have a set in each of my cars and they are fabulous-

get the non-sealed Bosch kit with the plug-and-play bulbs in the flat-lenses reflector dishes. Updates the car, better beam pattern, very cheap, compatable with our harnesses.

I have them on my car too, and they are great.

They increase visability greatly

BTW Manntis nice to see you posting from time to time

I actually like the cheaper ones from Pro Car Parts lol.

I'm a cheap **** and like the diamond cutting..I found them cheaper on Ebay, but they were to fit a old Cabriolet, but it said they would fit any car with 7 inch wide- 4 inch deep headlights...just wanted to make sure, thanks guys.
