Hi All
I have always considered the headlamp beams on my Westie to be useless on main beam and supremely useless on dip. This is not helped by the fact that its a LHD with beam converters.
If anyone knows of a pair of UK (ie RHD) rectangular Hella units needing a nice new home in an LT chassis, please let me know.
PLUS
I have been told there's a large voltage drop in the loom by the time the cable reaches to headlamp so I am thinking of re-wiring the headlights direct from the battery using relay(s) on the existing feed cable(s).
Has anyone tried this.
And
back to my topic question:
100/80 bulbs are available in the UK BUT are they legal in the UK.
and
as I may be driving the LT Spain in the autumn - are they legal over there?
Cheers
