Ron, Is this the same headlight one might use in the SA Grille in the outboard locations. I've got a SA Grille but have been holding it while other things were going on. I have the round 7" buckets or whatever from an earlier model vanagon, but not the headlights and bulbs themselves. So I'm looking. If these work, my problem is solved. Are they what I need? Thanks.
