Title: replacement lights
Post by: brettwr on September 23, 2003, 07:56:36 PM
Its getting dark earlier now and the thought of going through another winter not seeing anything unless the high beams are on is not good.:rolleyes:
Any suggestions for upgrading the headlights?

Stick some brighter (i.e ilegal 90/100\'s) or those 50% brighter jobbies are pretty good) bulbs in.

Check that you have a full 12V going to you headlamps as l found recently with someone that they only had 7V going to them and hence he had dim lights, don\'t know the out come but l suggested a relay fault .

l fitted Vauxhall van units from a Rascal or Midi to mine when l had one years ago and that improved things tremendously

Also Mikes suggestion is a good move anyway

Hope this helps.  

All the best Clive
