LUCAS PL700 TRIPOD HEADLAMPS
"Replica Parts with Lucas Name Embossed in Glass"
This writer has a pair of genuine Lucas
PL700 Tripod Headlamps on his Triumph
TR3A sports car. These were purchased many
years ago and carefully hoarded for use on my
car. I fitted these with modern halogen bulbs,
and they light up the road like modern halogen
lamps, maybe better. They also look fantastic
on my car. The only way to find original
Lucas PL700 Tripod Headlamps now is to buy
them at high prices on e-bay or from other
sources of NOS classic car components.
Soon to be available again, however, are
replica Tripod Headlamps made on a base with
an H4 configuration. These will take
H4/P43t(9003) bulbs which you can find
anywhere, I am told. The lamps will be made in the Far East, but they are made under
license from Lucas, and they have "Lucas, Made in England" markings like original
lamps. We had purchased a previous version of these lamps from the same U.S. parts
wholesaler, and we are told that the new run will be even better. If you want PL700
Tripod Headlamps on your TR250, TR6 or other British car, please keep an eye on this
section in the web version of this catalogue, and a price will appear as soon as they
have become available again.
