★ This bulb is suitable for headlamp units with P45T fitting. Please note: this is not a sealed beam unit as originally fitted to WWII military jeeps, but a modern alternative with replaceable bulb.

Application

For use in headlamp units with P45T fitting on vehicles with 6V electrical system. Fits the categories: CJ-2A, CJ-3A, M38 and CJ-3B when fitted with European-code headlamp units with replaceable bulbs.

Installation notes

The bulb has a P45T fitting with 3 connection pins: earth, dipped beam and main beam. Ensure the fitting is correctly orientated when installing in the bulb holder. Do not touch the glass with bare hands - use a clean cloth.

Compatibility

IMPORTANT: This is NOT a sealed beam unit. Original WWII and early CJ models used 5¾" sealed beam units. This P45T bulb only fits modified headlamp units with replaceable bulbs (European-code system). Check that your headlamp unit has a P45T bulb holder before ordering.

Historical context

The P45T fitting was developed in Europe as an alternative to sealed beam systems, with the advantage that only the bulb needs replacing rather than the complete unit. This type became popular in restorations and modifications of classic vehicles.
