C3 Corvette Fitting

Before installing it, I bought an upgraded wiring harness from a Corvette supplier. I read somewhere that the C3 Corvette's factory headlight harness was burned. I bought Hella with H1 high beam. The headlight bracket housings must be opened to accommodate the new larger lamp housing. This involves significant grinding or cutting to get the correct hole size. If you're a purist, you won't want to do this. My car is an '81 Restomod, so I didn't worry about installing it. The headlights have…

Pros
  • Fitting Type: Vehicle Specific
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Box from Germany?

First of all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with these headlights, their quality lives up to the Hella name. The only problem with the lights themselves is that they are NOT EXACTLY a direct replacement for the 2C1.

Pros
  • The bulbs are ECE compliant and only street legal in Canada.
Cons
  • A few little things

Given that 99% of the time you're probably only using low beam (possibly with fog lights), this is a great option if electronic codes are allowed. I have had two sets on two different machines and in the 7+ years that I have owned them I have been very…

Pros
  • Kits include 2 bulbs, bulbs, silicone dust caps
Cons
  • Almost never
