Bought a pair a dozen years ago very reasonably.
Rick chided me at the time that they would blind people.
Been the best investment I made on my A2.
By the way have several NOS American incandescent headlight bulbs for sale right now if anyone needs them.
PM if you are interested in them

You can buy an adapter to rewire for around $8 bucks on Amazon or between $30 to $35 for ones with the correct connections to use the 3 prong beams. Have not looked but may be cheaper elsewhere.

They also have led's with adapters for $150, seem to review well but I have no experience with.
