Hi Owain

My first car in 1973 was a 1960 VW Beatle with 6V electrics. If you want to
know about bad head lights at night and in the rain, this is as challenging
as it gets.

Personally, I hate driving at night so I use ultra bright xenon H4 bulbs to
make sure I can see. I got them in a period yellow/white colour rather than
the more usual blueish tint, but they provide stacks of light and only draw
55W.  Short of full on HIDs, they were the best I found.

Real period lights bring me to a complete standstill in the rain at night.

It's a pretty subjective topic to touch on :) On Dec 28, 2013 10:16 PM,
