This matched pair of wide flute 12 volt Tung-Sol headlamps are the large 7" size used in cars and trucks with the two headlamp system.  Produced from 1953 to 1959, they are the heavy duty version of the 5400 and were eventually replaced by the 6013.  They were advertised variously as "rough service", "heavy duty", "truck and bus", and "long-life" and have a beefed-up, reinforced filament (see last pic) that 5400 and 6012 bulbs did not.  Since all of the OEM manufacturers were using center logo bulbs from 1956 (or earlier) into the beginning of the 1961 model year, consider these as excellent alternatives to the very-hard-to-find 5400 and center logo 6012.

The three aimer buttons (also known as "aiming points", "aiming platforms", "nubbins", and "gizmoes") were introduced by the industry in 1955, so the bulbs for sale here are not ideal for vehicles produced before that.

This is my last set.

BMW X3 gets a turbo four-cylinder

Thu, 16 Feb 2012

BMW is expanding the use of its N20 turbocharged four-cylinder engine by making it the base powerplant for the 2013 X3 SUV. The X3 xDrive28 will use the twin-scroll turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that produces 240 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Twin-scroll turbocharging means that the exhaust stream of cylinders one and four follow a separate path to the turbine wheel from cylinders two and three.
