NOS SEV Marchal Amplilux Headlights Correct for Porsches (Very Rare)

10/28/24 - One Set Only 

Note: All prices include mounting in original restored Hella SB19 sealed beam headlight housings.

The early twin reflector headlights were an effort to be able to use the single filament H1 halogen bulb in automobile headlights. There were four made: Bosch H1, Cibie Bi-Iode, SEV Marchal Amplilux and Carello. It was common for high beams to have yellow shrouds on the high beam bulbs. The first two are widely known and second two less so. However they are as rare and desirable as the first two.

Amplilux headlights use an H1 bulb for low beams and an H3 bulb for high beams. They were usually outfitted with clear fluted lenses but were infrequently fitted with yellow lenses. Like the other twin reflector headlights they were designed to fit into the Hella SB19 sealed beam housings that Porsche used on early U.S. delivered 911's.

The most interesting thing about the performance of Ampliluxes is that they provide a very unique low beam cut-off and a super intense, far reaching, pencil like high beam that is not easily duplicated in a single bulb light assembly.

Special Note: These are much rarer than Bosch H1's, probably equivalent to the Cibie Bi-Iodes.
