Hi there. Looks like our E type has 1 original Lucas sealed beam lamp and 1 sealed beam aftermarket replacement (think the car had a bump many many years ago). I see that some Lucas lamps had the pilot bulb/light and some didn't. How do I know whether mine does or not? (We're contempalting replacing the aftermarket one with a Lucas original). Car is 1965 S1 4.2 OTS RHD (it's a very early 4.2, so has some carry over 3.8 parts on it). Thanks.

No side light bulb in headlamp as far as I'm aware on E types...Jaguar parts catalogue should be your go to place for parts for your chassis number...Steve
