Unlike later assemblies, the pre-1967 lighting units rely on these specific rubber mounts to isolate and secure the metal adjusting bracket to the headlight assembly. By providing a cushioned but firm mounting point, they allow the adjusting screws to pivot the reflector accurately without metal-on-metal vibration or loose movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eOver time, moisture and road grime trapped inside the headlight bucket cause these small rubber components to disintegrate. When they fail, the headlight reflector will rattle within the housing, making it impossible to maintain a steady beam pattern. These rubber mounts are essential \"while-you're-in-there\" replacement whenever you are refurbishing original Hella or Bosch sloping headlight units (Does also fit aftermarket head light units).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eDetailed Vehicle Compatibility\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThis rubber mount is specific to early sloping headlight assemblies and fits the following models continuously across these years:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003eVW Beetle (Standard):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eVW Bus (Type 2):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003eProduct Highlights \u0026amp; Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"17,0,0\"\u003eBracket Isolation:\u003c\/b\u003e Specifically designed to mount the headlight adjusting bracket to the assembly, providing vibration dampening for the reflector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"17,1,0\"\u003ePreserves Aiming Accuracy:\u003c\/b\u003e Ensures the adjusting screws have a stable base to pull against, preventing the headlights from drifting out of alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"17,2,0\"\u003eOEM Material Quality:\u003c\/b\u003e Molded from heavy-duty EPDM rubber for resistance to the heat and ozone common inside headlight buckets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"17,3,0\"\u003eComplete Refresh:\u003c\/b\u003e Replacing these mounts eliminates the annoying \"headlight flicker\" caused by loose internal hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"19\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"19,0,0\"\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 111-941-147\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"19,1,0\"\u003eApplication:\u003c\/b\u003e Headlight Adjusting Bracket to Assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"19,2,0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Molded Black Rubber\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"19,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"19,3,0\"\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/b\u003e Typically sold as a set of 6 (enough for one complete headlight)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"20\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"21\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"21\"\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Maintenance Tips\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"22\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"22,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"22,0,0\"\u003eClean the Bracket:\u003c\/b\u003e Before pressing the new rubber mounts into place, ensure the metal bracket is free of rust and old rubber debris.
