Yes, that, but made in USA. I looked up the Hella website like with any other brand I could find. They have a map that shows where all their various facilities are. China is one of the two nations on that map that are listed for production.

I think most of the snowmobiles of the time used the same headlight. My 1980 Trailfire 340 has a halogen H4 now, same thing I wanna do for the 295/S. The bulb I wanna use is a made in USA model, but the lens and reflector assemblies all seem to be made in China. Hoping there's an option that's not, ...

I've been doing a bit of searching for a headlight assembly that will fit the 295/S and is made in the USA, but can't seem to find one. Most assemblies seem to be 5 3/4 inches and I think these sleds take a 5 1/2 inch light, and every single one seems to be made in China. Does anybody know of one I ...

Well, a month or two ago the 295/S finally came home, thanks to an expert restorer deciding I'd waited long enough and that he would sell me one of his to trade to the guy who had my grandpa's old sled. Still nothing on JDX8 #022920 aside from a rumor that the son of a former John Deere executive ha...

Bump!!! No reply in awhile. Still haven't found another 295/S to buy so I can get my grandpa's back, and I can't find the JDX8 anywhere, though I have confirmed that like the 295/S it would be a 1974 model year.

Either of the JDX8's happen to be #022920? Haven't heard anything of it in seven years.

Hey @monte44, would you mind seeing if your uncle is willing to potentially sell one of his so the current owner of this one will sell it to me?

Whew, that's ALOT of a single model, especially a limited run 1000-sled model from 40+ years ago!!!! I was contacted this week by the guy to whom my parents sold the 295/S. He's chopped the windshield to standard 295/S height and painted it John Deere yellow, cleaned up the gas tank and some of the ...

Usually a 295/S windshield is roughly half the height you'd find on a JDX or 00 series. However, like with the gas tank, the full height windshield seems to have been an option. If I hadn't seen pictures of almost everybody else's 295/S projects, I wouldn't have known it had a partial height windshi...

Thanks. Not sure where all else I can ask, but if some who are kind enough to check the serial numbers on theirs happen to match them, I'll be jumping on that pretty quick.

Back when I was a teenager, my maternal grandfather gave my family the 295/S and JDX8 that he had bought new in the early '70s and that my mom rode during her teens. The 295/S even still had some damage to the skis and the windshield from when she flipped it back in those days. Then in early 2012, w...
