quad lights - fitting
« on: 06 February 2008, 22:51 »
got delivered today  :smiley:

are they easy to fit? as in setting the beam for right hand driving, or should they be pretty much ready set to go in?

do i need to use 1 of the bulbs from old lights or do i need to buy new bulbs?

and the level adj. is it pretty straight forward to set up with parts supplied?

Thanx
Gav

piss easy 15 min job

it dont warrant a reply tbh heheheh

take off your grill  (go steady)

unscrew the 3 or 4 bolts that hold the headlamp on, undo the connectors, it then pulls out,  bolt new light in place, use the bulbs that came with them...im sure shock supplied them with the lamps?

mine are hella and were set for RHD so i cant help u on that....
