I did install the Halogen kit to one side this morning and it fit just fine with plenty of clearance for the connector. I'm not sure the headlights are from a 1930 as this is my first Model A. I have learned a lot and I have a lot more to learn.
I learn a lot from this form and appreciate the help and advice from everyone on here. It sure makes things easier on us new guys.


Your A sounds interesting. How about posting a couple of pictures, either here or in your profile?

If you are referring to the little round plug shown in the first picture, that's not what plugs into your car. It's in the 3rd picture and it is the mating connector to the Snyder's kit.

If you want to retain your original set-up, Logolites has an LED bulb that replaces the original Model A bulb. And they will work on 6 or 12 volts, positive or negative ground.

Thanks for clearing that up, Carl. Hard to picture everything without seeing it in-hand.
