LED Headlight upgrade 356SC

[timlovett]

Does anyone have experience of fitting an LED headlight upgrade to a 356 with H4 units. I purchased a set from Roger Bray but the 'transformer' and other bits are hard to house within the headlight bowls. They press on the sprung headlight unit and this results in the aiming mechanism being pushed out of line. There just doesn't seem room for all the gubbins and the original connector terminal in the headlight bowl.

I found the following on the 356 Registry

It may be of some help?

I changed some time ago got lights from dynamo and regulator conversions company.
Using them at night, I was amused to have an oncoming modern car flash me to dip my lights!
I changed all the other lights as well including the flashers now using a digital flasher unit.
the ones I use have 2 braided straps to dissipate the heat into the rear of the headlight bowl, they fit well.
They are definitely the way to go..

It sounds like you are having some trouble installing LED headlights on your 356 with H4 units. Dealing with limited space and ensuring proper alignment can be really challenging. Have you considered reaching out to Roger Bray or their support team for advice or potential solutions? They may have experienced similar issues from other customers and may offer valuable information or alternative mounting options. Researching different case configurations or seeking advice from experienced enthusiasts on forums or online communities dedicated to 356 mods can also provide helpful suggestions. I dealt with similar headlights when I was writing an article about Porsche.

Hang in there and hopefully you'll find a solution that works well for your setup!

Thank you Jean. I obtained my kit originally from Roger Bray but returned it as there was not enough space in the headlamp bowls. I have now got hold of some bulbs from Classic Dynamo & Regulator Conversions which I will fit shortly and report back.
