[Healeys] Lucas headlights

[Larry Varley]

Quite true, the only modification my 100 has to the electrical system 
was to fit a pair of second hand Lucas sealed beam headlights. With a 
new wiring loom, I have never had a problem with the electrics, and the 
headlights are perfectly adequate. It's a very simple system, easy to 
work on and maintain. Given that most of the critical components in my 
car are almost 60 years old, it's doing ok. Now the Fiat 124BC I once 
owned......oh dear :)
Cheers
Larry
