Hi new to group! I have just brought a 1986 Santana over from Spain and have to get an MOT done to register in UK. Can anyone advise which RHD headlamps will fit like for like. Thanks

Think it's a lucas glass sealed beam unit straight swop

I just got a pair from Paddocks with bulbs in, they do sealed beam as well

All 7" sealed beam or Quadoptic/crystal with a separate bulb will fit.
Avoid LED

Personally i'd fit quadoptics and also get new holders, fitting kit and rims.
Fit and not worry about for a good few yeas

Yes you can still get 'sealed beams' but I think the more modern design with H4 bulbs are better in many ways.
Also changing everything will make life a lot easier if you need to dissasemble for any reason.
