My tuscan has blew a headlamp bulb, it's a dip beam bulb(normal driving lights). They are Gas discharge / Hid headlamps. Has any body got a part number or any idea where i can get a bulb from

Thanks in advance.

I'd imagine "a bulb is a bulb", not made uniquely for TVR so any decent Motor Factors should be able to match it up but I would take it along as a pattern, they may not have Tuscan listed in their catalogues computer? wink

Dip beam lamp is H7 incandescent variety. At least on mine it is - standard Tuscan S...If you have HID dip beams, then yes, take blown unit to your motor spares place.

Any motor factor will have some. Guess you mean the Main Beam is HID? Never had to change one - but I'm guessing it's a more involved procedure?

Take the bulb out and take it to your local motor factors as previously suggested.

HID bulbs are no harder to change than a regular incandescent bulb. However, if the balast pack has blown then that means replacing that instead. It should be a couple of plugs.
