Default 62 headlights

What make and part number are the replacements for the 62 hi/lo and hi headlamp bulbs? Who sells them?
Thanks

Any GM 60 -67 four headlight system bulb will work. The Delco Guide P/N was 4001 & 4002 . Wagner and Sylvania are two replacement bulb makers that are commonly sold at Walmart and Advanced Auto.

New bulbs will be halogen, which are much brighter, but don't use any more power.
The original bulbs were incandescent..

Not sure what you are seeking?

Your 62 uses the standard round 5 3/4" sealed beam bulbs. They are getting harder to find, but Phillips and Sylvania do still make them.

The current model number for the Halogen replacement sealed beam bulbs are H5006 for the low beam, and H5001 for the high beam. Generally, they list for about $16 each, but you can often find them for less.
