This set of Bosch W113 North American headlight doors are offered for sale as a New Old Stock (NOS) pair with the original Bosch boxes. These headlamp doors feature a single glass lens at the front, chrome trim rings, sealed blinker elements, and the internal moulded plastic bulb fixtures. Suitable for the W113 model produced between 1963 through 1971, these headlamp doors are good replacements for North American Pagodas with the sealed beam headlights. Also included are the yellow Bosch boxes that have been stored indoors with climate control. Made in Germany text is shown molded into the lenses. This set is located in Morgan Hills, California and may be shipped at the buyer's expense.
The original Bosch headlight doors show no wear and the plastic housing is free from any cracks or pitting. Factory part numbers for the headlight doors are present on the original yellow Bosch boxes reading 1 305 542 900 for both. The North American doors have the amber blinkers integrated into the bottom of the lens and show Made in Germany stamped on each.
The yellow Bosch boxes are included in the sale with the original part number stickers present. The seller notes no mold or water damage is present and they were stored indoors and in a climate controlled facility under their ownership. Detailed pictures of the backside of the doors are present and show no corrosion on the metal surfaces and the mounting brackets have no damage or wear as these are NOS pieces.
As Pagoda prices rise, so do all the parts costs associated with the W113. We’re lucky a lot of Pagodas have been kept in good shape as they never became cheap cars over the decades, but age, wear, and tear is something drivers cannot avoid. UV damage and heat can age out a headlight door and a rock at highway speeds can shatter a lens without warning. Finding a brand new original Bosch headlight door with the original Bosch boxes can be a score to someone who either needs a new headlight door or is restoring a Pagoda to concourse levels as a judge will absolutely be looking for Bosch stamps in the headlights. These doors can be the difference between first and second place at a judged event and we all know people want that blue ribbon.
