Title: Bulbs for Carello Spotlamps Post by: peterblenk on 04 March, 2021, 12:37:41 PM I recently bought a pair of Carello spot lamps on Ebay. They have an unusual lump in the middle of the lens and are apparently from an ALFA 2600 of the mid-i960s. The lenses are marked "Carello 02.130.700". The problem is bulbs. The holder is unusual, with a spring-loaded centre and an aluminium cap or hood. So far I have not been able to find anyone who can supply the correct bulbs. Does anyone have an idea or a sample?

I've just restored a pair of Carello lights with these. There should be a double wired spring clip that holds them in. https://www.arc-components.com/user/products/large/7-004-53-durite-12v-55w-quartz-halogen-h3-453-automotive-bulb.jpg (https://www.arc-components.com/user/products/large/7-004-53-durite-12v-55w-quartz-halogen-h3-453-automotive-bulb.jpg) |
