9N Headlight

[TheBoro]

Hello again-
Blew a headlight on my '41 9N, 6 volt. The light is about 4.5 inches across.
The info on the light said: Wagner 6.2v [b:a4f48f622f]4611[/b:a4f48f622f] 30 watt 10 18 05 1.

I went to my local Ford/NH dealer, all they had was a 6v that was too big. They also said that they could not find anything else with the number [b:a4f48f622f]4611[/b:a4f48f622f] on it.

I called TSC and looked at their webpage. They have Wagner bulbs in 6v, but the number was [b:a4f48f622f]4511[/b:a4f48f622f]. It looks to be the same bulb, but the number is different, [b:a4f48f622f]4611 v. 4511[/b:a4f48f622f].

Has anyone else had to supplement one of these bulbs?

And yes, I did double check the bulb to make sure that the 6 was not a 5.

Thanks-

The 4611 is brighter and draws 20% more current.

But even if they don't work, they can still be a handy place to take up that annoying slack in your spark plug wires...

I agrees entirely!!! ....but unfortunately cannot take credit for it. That is one of my "before" pictures. I have a couple of real lulu's to add to it but I'll save them for when I have some "after" pictures. I just can't have all the guys here thinking those are my new plug wires!
