[Healeys] LED Headlight Conversion advice

[Bob Haskell]

Listers,

Just got the weekly email from Little British Car Company and they're 
selling a pair of semi-sealed 7" round headlight with H4 LED bulbs that 
will work with positive or negative ground for about $90 (P/N 
171-LEDHL101).  NFI.

Cheers,

Bob Haskell
