Post by: Eeyore on September 05, 2007, 20:40:08: He has a point, they are actually better than the old sealded beam jobbies.

No, seriously, I know it's hard to belive but they were actually an improvement! I mean the SBs couldn't get a lot worse! :lol:

Post by: jjsaul on September 06, 2007, 01:51:28: pretty much any halogen lamps are better than the sealed beams...i use crystal halogen ones with a plain beam pattern, they seem to be excellent for the cost (i paid Â£25/pair inc bulbs)

as for bodged wiring...my offroader seems to have been wired up to be permanent live for everything (eg the heater and everything works with the ignition off :shock: )

looking forward to seeing pics matty :)

Post by: zulublue on September 06, 2007, 09:32:15: I changed my SB's to halogen, but I keep knackering them due to the deep water stuff we do, so I have gone back to sealed beams.

But you can get halogen sealed beams now anyway.

drill holes in the bottom...and remember to switch the headlamps off before wading...(i managed to explode the bulbs in both headlamps once by driving into 3ft of water after having had main beam on for a few hours hehe :roll: )
(i use roof lights for wading at night)
