Anybody know a good place to get a single high beam bulb for my 60? I put in an H5001, but it's brighter than the others, the glass pattern doesn't match, and the halogen center mount is dark and sets it off from the other lamps. I just want a single lamp, and not an upgrade. I tried several vendors, they sell halogen and "sets of T3" bulbs for anywhere from 120 to 250 plus shipping. My current bulbs are Westinghouse incandescents and do not say T3. Thanks.
Here's my passenger side and what appearance I'm looking for.

Reason: Corrected to HIGH beam
This is the one sold by auto parts stores, and every other place I've shopped on line and in person unless I buy a T3. Don't want a T3, just an INCANDESCENT bulb (not halogen). Incandescent bulbs are not sold by parts stores any more. This is the one I want to change to match the other three:

I have one #2 hi/low beam that matches your outside bulb, if you happen to need one in the future. I can't find a low beam in my stash. Years ago, I remember snipping the high beam connector off a bulb and using it in the low beam side. Might work to make all your bulbs match.
I think maybe I'm not calling it the right thing. I need the high beam bulb (inside) two prong. I guess high/low would be the outside since it's on in both situations. I need the one that is only on in high beam mode. Is that the one you have?

From your picture you need a three prong 4000 bulb, which would be an H5006, not an H5001 bulb.
I can get you a 400 non halogen GE three prong bulb from one of my suppliers for $8.00 plus shipping.

I think I have a 2 prong high beam incandescent bulb from back in the day in my parts stash. PM me if you don't find one. Probably a wagner or Westinghouse. Hubert

I need the two prong high beam. Can you get that one?
Thanks to burdenh for jogging my memory. A couple of years ago I switched out the high beams on my 72 for halogen since one of them was out. I still had the other original high beam T3 (4001) in my stash, so I put it in the 60. Looks fine to me and works great, so I'm all set. I know I said I didn't want a T3, but that was a price issue.
Thank you all.
Indeed, I just don't know how he gets in and out of the driver's door in that tight a space. He must vault over the door like Kookie Byrnes..
It's not nearly as tight as it looks. The camera angle makes it look close because the front of the 60 is on the Kwiklift and the 09 is on the floor. The fender of the 60 hides the gap. You can trust this: I no longer "vault"

I appreciate the link, but I had already checked them and they failed my original request in a couple of ways. First, I was looking for a single headlamp, they only sell sets of four. Second, they only had T3's which I also specified I did not want. The $120 plus shipping price seemed too high to me for what I was looking for. I did find one in my own stock, so I am ok now, thanks again.
