MG TD TF 1500 - TD Headlights

So one of my headlights (sealed beam) was out. When it was removed to check it, I noticed it was broken along the edge which is probably why it was bad.

I have many spares so I grabbed a matching set - Sylvania Halogen.

Sounds like an odd question but can I use these with the TD electrical system? Wiring looks new(er) and its running a stock genny. Not sure if these have additional draw over non-halogens.

Cheers,

Vince,
6024 lamps are by law limited to the maximum current draw... so if your car or any car that came with 6024's can use any other 6024s. From memory I think they are 55/65 watts +/- 12%(lo/hi). All Sylvania lamps follow the law (MVSS108), with exception to the ones labeled "for off road use only". I am not aware of an offroad use only 6024 from Sylvania.

I have them in my TD also... and they work great!
