[Mgs] Driving lamps on a 70 MGB

[Eric Markley]

I'll chip in my 2 cents,

My parents gave me a set of Cibie' 35 diving lights for Christmas in 1973.
They never made it on to my '68 Sprite that I had at the time but I did put
them on my '65 Mustang convertible (289, 2v, power top) that I bought in
'75. Those lights would darn near melt paint on car in front of you and
projected the light a tremendous distance.

They are similar in size and shape to the Lucas Square 8. Many, I suspect,
might not want to put a French light on a British automobile.

I located a company called Aardvark International that carries Cibie' lights
and parts. NFI, etc. One day I will get the old lights working again. Yes, I
still have them.

Thanks for the memory trigger,

Eric in Florida

I'd like to put a set of driving lights on the MG, but kinda curious as to
what shape and style of light people think would be more correct. I tend to
believe that maybe the Lucas Square 8s are more correct for 70 and on as
opposed to the larger 7" round Lucas 700s.  Any thoughts or ideas or
pictures
would be appreciated? I know it comes down to personal preference...Thanks
