Title: Rear Lights
Post by: Kowalski on February 25, 2014, 04:43:59 PM

Hi all,

a very small question about rear light cluster dimensions:

Are older aircooled models and Bis rear lights the exact same dimensions?
All the parts shops list the parts separately, so I think there must be some difference, particularly in height.

Thanks in advance,

Andre

I think it's more to do with shape rather than dimensions. The BIS ones are rather rounded and the reflector is different and the air cooled ones stick out and have a more square look about them. I think if e lens would be interchangeable but I must admit I've NEVER seen a BIS with air cooled lights so maybe they won't

Thanks Gadge,

I was thinking the other way round. Will I be able to mount Bis units on my Aircooled?
It is only a matter of lens, or the whole projector differs?

Has anybody seen the two side by side?

cheers,

Andre
