The Guide "pancake" style sealed beam on 1953-1958 IH tractors is NOT the same as what you get at NAPA.
What you get at NAPA is a "Wagner 4511" style standard sealed beam.
Size and overall shape are CLOSE, but not quite.
You can shoehorn a standard 4511 bulb into an IH light housing, and even make it look good, but it won't be "correct."
However, the 4511 bulb is $10, and the original style is $45-$50... There are NO cheaper sources for the "correct" sealed beam. They are a custom item made in small quantities because only 1953-1958 IH tractors use them.
For $35-$40 per light, it may be worth it to you to figure out how to make the 4511 bulb work.
