Default ZR1 Headlamp Replacement

My 91 Left headlamp is out and need to replace. Looking in the owners manual it appears their is a different lamp for the ZR1 and the base C4. The only difference I can see is about 5 times the cost.

Base Vette: H6054
ZR1: HP6054


Please help me out with my question - thanks in advance

There may be differences between years but no difference, as far as I know, between ZR-1s vs. standard C4. They both take 5"x7".
Unless you are keeping with NCRS standard consider newer headlight technologies such as HID modification or LED option.

Expensive perhaps but much brighter and better lighting.

HP6054 , P stands for plastic bulb instead of glass. Plastic is lighter and no longer available. Just use the glass.

There were no teal or aqua 1991 Corvettes produced. Yours is probably a turquoise metallic or a repaint. What's the color code on the console cover? - it's a 2-digit number with a "U" suffix - probably 42U.
