Title: WTB Cibie or Marchall hood lights
Post by: Cornpanzer on April 30, 2007, 13:56:37 pm
The Porsche guys are driving these up where I cannot justify spending the money.  Looking for a pair for my personal car.  Perhaps one of you guys has a lead on a pair?
They were OEM fitment on Citreon DS and common on sports/rallye cars of the 60s/70s.
Thanks in advabce

Looks like Cibie OSCAR model, have a look here www.holden.co.uk (http://www.holden.co.uk)

Those were effectively common in the 70s, I'll check in swap meets and with my dad (a great Citroen enthusiast) for a pair

Best R.

They are actually Cibie Pallas.  The Oscar used a traditional bracket while the one I am looking for has a flat bottom on the housing designed to bolt directly to a fender or hood.  I have been told that there are no interchangable parts between the Pallas and the Oscar.
Thank you for searching for me!  :)
