Hi, guys. I was wondering if any of you guys with a four-eyed ASC could get under your car's front end and tell me what the part number is for the Hella assembly (assuming yours are in much better shape than mine)? I've looked for hours on Google searches and get conflicting/confusing results. On my 86 there are no part number decals or etching on them, but mine was neglected. One of my lights is chipped and cracked. I found the thread where it was mentioned BMW & SAAB used these as well, but from what I've found in Google image searches those companies also used other manufacturer's fog lights, too. I wouldn't mind buying them new if I had money to throw away, but that's not the case.

There is a sticker on the back of the lens housing where the bulb goes in. Mine are as follows:

1ND 126 449-00
8377 R19

There is a "B" in a square and an "E1" in a circle. There is also an "H3" printed on the sticker. There is also the number "193" in blue. The "B", "E1", "H3" and the "193" are in between the the above lines.

I'm not sure which one would be the part number though.

I have never gotten a part number for them.

I do know if you email Hella, you can get the lens stickers for free.

Email Hella relations and send them a link to your picture. See if they can come up with a part number.

I have the original case they came in that held 6 pair, 12 lights and the box only says Hella and made in Germany. The lights all come wrapped individually in brown paper with the 2 wires taped on the back. The actual light bulbs are seperate in packs of 12. They have a part number.

Here are some part numbers pics I've saved from the net over several months in my search. Missed out on a couple of steals because of other issues Sad

Don't know why the image links are not working here unless it's a site issue or my craptop's browser.

Having read on here that Sandy used Hella 181 covers on his lights I came across a pair of smoked covers that would probably look nice on a white ASC.

So far I've come to find these are used on mid-late 80s BMW 325 and 635, mid to late 80 to early 90s SAAB 900, and mid to late 80s Peugeot 505.

I like those smoke covers. I would like to get a set for my car.
