Im currently here in Manila and visited a vintage car shop and look what I found. New old stock vintage map lights. With the converstion its around $55.00. Its made by Alexander of the UK. They are all new in boxes but around 40 yrs old. Its very similar to the ones on ebay for $475. There are 2 models. One that you can plug in your lighter and one that you can mount with 2 screws. I saw around 15 pieces in the shop. I dont mind bringing them back to the States but I will take them out of the box since its bulky. Let me know who wants one and I can bring them back after Thanksgiving. Just pay the $55 plus shipping from Northern California and let me know if you want the mount model or the plug in.

No problem fellow E9ners. But pls take note I will leave the boxes here in Manila cause it would be bulky. I have to place them in my luggage in between my clothes.

I also saw these new old stock vintage H4 bulbs with a yellow jacket for $20 but it might be too fragile for me to buy a lot.

How much is the 1967 Rolex Daytona next to the H4 bulb?

OK, in that case put me down for a plug-in map light.
The Rolex would be period correct with the car also...
