Title: Lights?
Post by: Jono FD3 on January 20, 2006, 05:19:18 PM
Hi everyone, I wonder if any of you knowlageable people  could help me?
I\'ve got an FD with the standard headlights at the moment and am a bit disapointed with the glow worm style light that comes out of them!!

I like the look of the fixed headlamp setups like the cwest. Being a hands on designery person I\'m going to make my own custom light setup......... basicaly I have got the dip beam projector lights from a mazda 323f (Fixt lamp version obviously!!) but I was wondering what sort of light these units give out = good, OK, Naff or seriously CR@P?????

So do any of you drive one of these cars? if so what is the dip beam like at night, befor I start attaking my beloved 7!!

Read a review years ago on those cars, the reviewers liked apart from the poor headlights. Their views, of course - but might be worth taking note of. Then again, they may still be better than the units the 7 has!

POOOOOOOOOOO, but having said that they run H1 bulbs (single fillement spot bulbs) so I could just get 100w bulbs for them (or bigger???)

Coments please people.......
