Semi-sealed beams are headlights effectively the same as a sealed beam unit, but with the ability to replace the bulb without having to replace the complete beam unit allowing you to fit different bulb options. I am currently running these in my '41, '42 and '53 Fords with Quartz Halogen bulbs.

These are easier to obtain for country's like New Zealand where we drive on the left side of the road.

The ones I have installed, with relays, give lights comparable to or better than some modern 12V systems.
