In rallying, I seem to remember that only two brands of lamps were chosen
by all the top competitors. The dominant one was the French Cibie, used
by Porsche despite the fact that the other one, less good, was from
Hella, a German firm.

I'd pay a lot if I could have the light output of that bank of big Cibie
lamps across the front of my rally Porsche on my bike...


Okay, you made me check my lamp dump drawer. Does anyone know how to access
the electrics compartment part in these?

I can only detach the front lens and unscrew the E10 bulb.

The engenious one-part sculpture of aluminized plastic that is both the
reflector, and the base, will not move to the front one bit -- yes, even if
I bark at it in Old Prussian, threatening to shoot Namibian sand at the
lens, or to buy a new lamp from vontrotha.
