today, i was mostly faffing about with headlamps...boy! I do not like this Cibie arrangement !! And I discovered that the eyebrows are bonded to the frames.
Still after a couple of hours I managed to get my replacement headlamps in position.
As you can see, these lamps have LEDs on the lower half of the rim as DRLs. Not wired in yet, next job !
These lamps are polycarbonate construction, so will not rust, and the beam is formed in the reflector, so have a flat lens..and have a much sharper cutoff than the Cibies...so very well pleased with this modification.
Next question? where did I get them? Answer: http://www.kitspares.co.uk/index.php?ro ... search=led
A bit pricey, but I do like the look of them, but, more importantly is the DRL function, a definite must for a small car on today's roads !!
