Fixed the lights then?

Rewired them. Still at it housings are nicely sanded down. H1 bulbs on order swap 55 to 100 w should sort. There Cibie units should alright dipped with 100w in adjusted right. Lots of water ingress. But all now working and no interference from flasher circuit. Photos laters.

I wonder if they do an LED lamp that fits into the holder? LEDs give a much better light. My gfs uncle was telling me he swapped his for LEDs as a standard lamp had blown and they were much better and brighter

quite happy with results. lens need polish another day.

cibir light units are fitted main 100w and dipped 55w...now we can get led H1s so should be a bit brighter and less heat to cloud the lenses.

on order from ebay.

Btw, where in Westbury your at? I have been googling my ass off in that area, looking for sightseening there Westbury Whitehorse! Near Stonehenge (boring) and Longleat Safari Park. Plus very near Bath...Roman Baths are epic well worth a visit.

I love that pic! So jealous

We will stay at Salisbury 2 nights and then in Bath 2 nights. Salisbury looked like really nice town, lots to see there. And Bath, wow. And Combe village, few castles near Bath too...

Found Stonehenge and Whitehorse. And awesome castles and churches. I really like architecture of your churches even though Im not religious(can you imagine that;) )

Reason why I asked where you at, is that I could visit you...? And you carage when your not home
