Hella H4 5.75 in Round Halogen Headlamp Reflector 12V
Hella H4 5.75 in Round Halogen Headlamp Reflector 12V — Product description
The Hella H4 halogen headlamp reflector is a 5.75-inch round replacement optic for the classic 5 3/4-inch headlight setup found on cars, motorcycles, trucks, and off-road rigs. It's ECE approved, runs on 12 volts, and takes a standard H4 bulb. Sold as a single unit without a bulb, so you pick the exact H4 you want and drop it in.
This is the Hella H4 halogen headlamp reflector, a 5.75-inch round replacement optic that drops into the classic 5 3/4-inch round headlight bucket you'll find on decades of cars, motorcycles, trucks, and off-road rigs. It's the reflector-and-lens unit itself, built to take a standard H4 bulb, sold as a single piece so you can replace one side, both sides, or a cracked lens without buying a whole new light assembly.
One thing to be clear about up front: it ships without a bulb. That's on purpose. The H4 is one of the most common headlight bulbs on the planet, so Hella lets you pick the exact bulb you want and drop it in. If you've shopped bulbs before, you already know the H4 by its other names. It's the same thing as a 9003 and an HB2, all sharing the P43t base, and it runs on 12 volts in this application. Grab a standard 60/55-watt H4 and you're set. No adapter, no splicing, it just seats into the reflector.
Here's why the H4 is such a nice bulb to build around. It's a dual-filament design, which means one bulb gives you both your high beam and your low beam. Flip to low and one filament lights with a shield cutting glare for oncoming traffic. Pull high and the second filament fires for full reach down the road. That's the whole beauty of a 5.75-inch H4 setup: simple wiring, one bulb per lamp, and a beam pattern that's been proven on the road for a long, long time.
This unit is ECE approved. ECE is the European and international road-lighting standard, so the optic is cut to throw a proper ECE beam pattern. If you're building a European-market car, a classic, a cafe racer, or anything headed for a country that runs ECE rules, that approval matters. If you're in the States, check your local rules before you rely on it for street use, since the US runs its own DOT standard. Either way, for show cars, track builds, off-road trucks, side-by-sides, tractors, and utility equipment, an ECE H4 optic is a clean, bright, honest replacement.
It's sold as a single lamp. Most vehicles run a pair up front, so if you're refreshing both sides, order two and you'll have a matched set with the same optic and the same beam. Replacing just one cracked or hazed lens? A single is exactly what you want, and it'll match the other side since it's the same part.
Fitment is the standard 5 3/4-inch round pattern, so it seats into the same bucket and retaining ring your old sealed beam or reflector used. Wire it to a 12-volt supply, seat your H4 bulb, and aim it. A quick tip from experience: park about 25 feet off a flat wall on level ground, mark your headlight center height, and adjust so the top of the low-beam cutoff sits just below that mark. Ten minutes with a screwdriver and you've got a beam that lights the road instead of blinding the guy coming the other way.
Why Hella? Because a headlamp reflector lives a hard life. Heat cycles, road grime, vibration, weather. Hella has been making automotive and utility lighting for a very long time, and the reason people keep reaching for their optics is consistency: a clean reflector surface, a lens that holds its clarity, and a beam that actually goes where the standard says it should. Pair this reflector with a fresh H4 bulb and you get a noticeable step up over a tired, yellowed old lamp.
So who's this for? Anyone running a 5.75-inch round headlight who wants a proper ECE halogen optic and the freedom to choose their own H4 bulb. Classic car owners, motorcycle builders, off-road and utility folks, and anyone doing a headlight refresh on a budget. Just remember to add an H4 bulb to your cart, since this one comes ready for it but doesn't include it.

Frequently asked questions
Does this headlamp come with a bulb?
No. It's sold without a bulb so you can choose the exact H4 you want. Add a standard 12-volt H4 (also sold as 9003 or HB2) to your order and it seats right into the reflector.
What bulb does it take?
A standard H4 bulb with the P43t base, 12 volts, commonly 60/55 watts. The H4 is one of the most widely available headlight bulbs out there, so replacements are easy to find.
Is an H4 the same as a 9003?
Yes. H4, 9003, and HB2 all refer to the same bulb type with the same P43t base. If a bulb is marked any of those, it fits this reflector.
Does one H4 bulb give both high and low beam?
It does. The H4 is a dual-filament bulb, so a single bulb per lamp handles both your low beam and your high beam. That keeps the wiring simple.
What does 'ECE Approved' mean?
ECE is the European and international road-lighting standard, so the optic is cut to throw an ECE-pattern beam. If you're in the US, check your local rules before street use, since the US runs its own DOT standard.
Is this sold as a pair or a single?
It's a single unit. Most vehicles run two headlamps up front, so order two if you want a matched set. A single is perfect for replacing one cracked or hazed lens.
What size is it?
It's the standard 5.75-inch (5 3/4 inch) round headlamp pattern, so it seats into the same bucket and retaining ring a common round headlight already uses.
What voltage does it run on?
12 volts, which matches standard automotive, motorcycle, and off-road electrical systems.
Can I run an LED H4 bulb in it?
The reflector is designed and ECE-approved for a halogen H4, so it throws its best beam with a halogen bulb. Many LED 'H4' retrofits don't meet road-lighting rules and can scatter the beam in a halogen optic, so if road legality matters, stick with a halogen H4.
What vehicles use a 5.75-inch round headlamp?
Loads of them. Classic cars, motorcycles, older trucks, and plenty of off-road and utility equipment use the 5 3/4-inch round headlight. If your current lamp is this size and round, this is a direct replacement optic.
