If it doesn't sell here, you're welcome to advertise it on my website Derek. It'll be in good company: it's just for French classics and there's a couple of other R4s on there at the moment.

So when you dictated that, did you say "phone" twice or was that a glitch?!

I started writing it (on my tiny phone) before you posted your answer, (so it took me over 21 minutes!)

Firstly, are your tyres and (just as important) your wheels tube-type or tubeless-type? If the wheels are tube-type, (without the necessary profile for tubeless tyres), you must fit tubes. If they are tube-type wheels, (as most will be from roughly the eighties onwards), then you can fit...

I don't think so but my neighbour's modern Fiat 500 came with yellow auxiliary lights (low down in the bumper, so I assume they're fog lights).

Apart from the last post, this thread is 9 years old. Yellow 60/55 halogen bulbs with the round base fitting aren't widely available any more. I've got them on my website: https://retrospecparts.com/lighting-etc-c/311-headlamp-bulb-halogen-yellow-55-60w.html?search_query=Yellow&results=9 ...

Citroën 2CVs have a built in bottle-opener just under the steering wheel.

Do you want to advertise it (free) on my website as well? (It's just for French classics).

Andrew has answered all your questions Edwin but I'd just like to clarify the answer to your first sentence: All the halogen bulbs are clear but some come with a yellow globe, as you say. However, the non-halogen bulbs come with either clear glass or yellow glass.

Same here. They also look right on a French classic.

Actually Andrew, the P43t base is used on the 3-prong halogen bulbs and it is those that are often known as '472' (or 'P472' or 'H4'). The round base is P45t. Here's a bit more explanation of why 'selective yellow' lamps are better in bad weather conditions and the reason that the French...

Someone above mentioned yellow halogens from Der fransoze. As far as I can see they only sell the 3-prong h4 fitting. If you've got the round '410'-type fitting, I sell suitable yellow halogens on my website, here...

Thanks Simon. I'll investigate that.

Does anyone recognise this barrel? It has been suggested that it's from a Renault, (possibility an Estefette), but do you think? It's just 10mm diameter (at the section where the tumblers are) and about 47mm long (I'm not sure exactly because the end is broken off). It was fitted to the...

I wouldn't replace a working condenser. New ones don't tend to be as good quality these days.
