Compare Original Cibie Z Beam to
Reproduction
Lamps from India.
Nice Bright Looking Lens
Lens looks more like Z Beam on web sites,
isn't same as you receive.
Probably wouldn't make any difference!
They seem to be well made,
it's to bad that they didn't understand
that they should control the direction of Light coming out lens!
Also
the three tabs need to be slightly modified to fit bucket properly, the
Cibie drops right in.
Scattered Light directed to oncoming traffic.
If these are "E code", E has no
code!
Terrible Back Glare from Repop knock offs,
(both headlights using the exact same H4 bulb
type and brand), pulled from my left Cibie)
Bright Glare makes Fog,
Rain, Snow very difficult.
My next test is rock resistance, (no I am not going to sling rocks
at both the Cibie and reproductions and see which breaks first
but I am going to drive this summer without stone guards over the repros)!
Now I know why my 37+ year old French
Cibie's are Priceless!
