dim headlights on a disco 1

(1/2) > >>

nickW:
does anyone have any ideas on how to make the headlights brighter as mine seem very dim on dipped lights

thermidorthelobster:
You can fit +30% bulbs, available from any motor factor.  These do make quite a difference, but don't take any more power so won't fry the wiring.  Try this first as it's cheap and easy and you may find does as much as you need.

hobbit:
Up grade the wiring and add relays, then you can put higher wattage bulbs, or you could try some Xenon bulbs, supposed to be brighter but dont drain the power so much, also are you headlight bowls rusty?

Check the earths too.

True, good point

When I upgraded the wiring and fitted relays, I fitted new wiring and connectors too. Just used the olds feeds as switching wires for the relays
