Messed around with the blown Seelite and got one assembled. Found a problem with the bulbs that you get to replace the blown filament in the originals. There is a small divider that separates the high beam and the low beam, causing the bulb to illuminate on the bottom half on low beam and completely on high.

Hello,

That is great work you are doing there restoring the old headlights !!!

What is the answer to that, are there other bulbs out there that don't have the divider in them ?
I imagine you will have a solution to it soon in your laboratory :D :D :D :D

Keep up your great work, and experimenting on repairing things that others had given up on, or didn't think it was possible
to accomplish :D :D :D

Best Regards,

Ray
