Guide Bulbs

Bill Stoneberg · February 17th, 2003

I have an old Guide Spotlight that needs a bulb.
I have looked over the Internet and cant find any and I thought I would ask before going out and buying Hemmings.
Does anyone know who sells Guide bulbs for a 6v spotlight ?
Thanks

Hi Bill: Try a company called "Yesteryear Antiques" at www.car-nection.com/yesteryear/index they may be able to help you. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/image...ns/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I will go check in the barn. I may have one in an old light. I will let you know this afternoon.

Bill ~ Do you have the bulb number. I have a bunch of 6V fog light and driving light bulbs in the drawer and they may be the same. ~ hvs

Bill, it it a bulb or a 6V sealed beam unit? I have one of them ,but no bulbs.

This is a 6 V sealed beam spot. No numbers on it anywhere I can see but it looks like a bulb inside of a glass case. The inned bulb has the wroding
"Sealed Spot" with Guide in script across the middle.
It looks like a reflector on the inside but mine is so rusty I cant tell.
It is 5 and 1/4 inches in diameter.
I hope this helps and thanks for all the help.

Head on over to Farm & Fleet, sounds like a regular old tractor light. They come with screw terminals or 1/4" male lugs for auto cables, you might have to adapt one way or the other depending what they have in stock.

Still trying to find one so bumping this back up to the top.

Looked through Hemmings with no luck. Been awhile since I had actually looked at one.
