I'm after a pair of new headlights for my saff but can't decide which brand to go for? I see that there are at least two, Bosch and Carello, does anyone knows which has the best quality? I know that there is different mountings to the grill on the Cosworth lights but everything else is the same I think.

I would advise the Carrello 799 and 800 (left and right numbers) as the lenses are more clearer/brighter than the Bosch types. This gives a fresher and more newer effect. Be sure you get them of the same production line because this can give a little difference between the lenses.

I'd also use the cibie designed carrelo lights.

Cheers guys. I'll contact Ford and see what they come up with. Unfortunately I cannot buy headlights in UK since there is different reflectors on RHD cars.

Carello lights for Cosworth was no longer available at Ford, only standard Sierra but costs appr. £300 each. I can get hold of a brand new pair of Bosch lights for around £400 so i don't know if it's worth it then? Suggestions?

Stian, how badly do you need them? if you can hang on a bit they pop up from time to time on ebay,

You ideally want cossie ones so £300 for normal saph ones is steep, £400 for bosch ones is a lot of money but its what I would do if I couldn't get any after searching

I won this one recently for £56, genuine NOS Ford Carello lamp

It's no rush but yes I guess eBay is the only option. Problem is that i cannot buy headlights in UK because of the different reflectors on RHD vs. LHD. Will keep an eye on eBay in Germany but the Cosworth ones seems to be rare.

I have new genuine headlight glass so if i don't find any new Carello lights i can at least try to freshen up the reflectors on my old ones.
