yes i rather see 100m than have a good looking headlight that you can see 5m also the thing in the middle that sends the light back of the lamp broke off

so go to midis and get the hella replacements they not angeled like the org ones but the nice and the not dull my dad was driving infront of me and my left headlight is searching for spaceships but he said it so blinding it just super white

hey drillergy...

here's what you do...

go get the hella - if they have the clear lens's, which i'm sure they do. you can get from most spares shops. i recommend mintrams spares in honeydew, i think its eagle landing mall or something, on northumberland. steve is a really good guy, and he should be able to sort you out!

ask for the headlights for the nissan 1400 bakkie, they're the same exact size. also buy yourself a strip of thin foam rubber with the one sticky side, about 3-4mm wide. you will need this to ensure that your lights dont rattle around in their housings.

go read one of my articles that i posted in the articles section - about how to install headlights. that will show you step by step with pics.

also get yourself some yellow or smoke (hell - even the blue!) laminex film from autostyle.

and get some decent globes - the nightstalker they have for sale at most aftermarket places like autostyle look to be the business.

install the lot for a really good lighting upgrade!

personally with your dark colour car, i would go with the yellow film. i think it rock!!!
