Hi Ian, Although they aren't THAT common nowadays, troll the wreckers yards that have older cars in stock and you may find a set of 5¾" halogen lights that'll suit your car. Aftermarket ones are still available but will probably have to be ordered i Edited by user Tuesday, 19 December 2006 11:38:22 AM(UTC)

Ooops my bad I failed to read the word Premier sorry. I think that just about all cars with quad round headlamps in the 60's 70's & 80's had much the same setup with the 5 3/4 lamps. A couple of notable exceptions are Rolls royces & MK4 Zodiacs their quad Edited by user Wednesday, 20 December 2006 11:11:29 PM(UTC)
